Our problem is improvement of image quality because it is inevitable cell loss of image data when traffic congestion occurs. If cells are discarded indiscriminately in transmission of MPEG video data, it occurs severe degradation in quality of service(QOS). In this paper, to solve this problem, we propose two method. The first, we analyze the traffic characteristics of an MPEG encoder and generate high priority and low priority data stream. During network congestion, only the least low priority cells are dropped, and this ensures that the high priority cells are successfully transmitted, which, in turn, guarantees satisfactory QoS. In this case, the prioritization scheme for the encoder assigns components of the data stream to each priority level based on the value of a parameter ${\beta}$. The second, Number of high priority cells are increased when value of ${\beta}$ is large. It occurs the loss of high priority cell in the congestion. To prevent it, this paper is regulated to data stream rate as buffer occupancy with UPC controller. Therefore, encoder's bandwidth can be calculated renegotiation of the encoder and networks. In this paper, the encoder's bandwidth requirements are characterized by a usage parameter control (UPC) set consisting of peak rate, burstness, and sustained rate. An adaptive encoder rate control algorithm at the Networks Interface Card(NIC) computes the necessary UPC parameter to maintain the user specified quality of service. Simulation results are given for a rate-controlled VBR video encoder operating through an ATM network interface which supports dynamic UPC. These results show that dynamic bandwidth renegotiation of prioritized data stream could provided bandwidth saving and significant quality gains which guarantee high priority data stream.
