In this paper, we propose a dynamic bandwidth allocation scheme for the transmission of VBR video source through ATM based BISDN. In order to efficiently evaluate the required bandwidth, the characteristics of the VBR video sources generated by the MPEG coder are analyzed with variations in the number of GOP and quantizer scale. The required bandwidth for VBR video source is estimated by a prediction algorithm using scene and frame correlations as well as the statistical properties of the VBR video source. Scene correlation represents a strong correlation among the adjacent slices in a frame, and frame correlation represents a strong correlation among the frames. The statistical properties based on the traffic parameters of video sources such as peak rate, average rate, and standard deviation of source are determined through simulation. The performance of the proposed bandwidth allocation scheme is evaluated in terms of the over-allocated bandwidth, bandwidth utilization, and cell loss rate with variations in the quantizer scale and the number of GOP. It is shown that the results of simulation based on the proposed scheme are superior to those of the conventional methods.

In this paper, we present a joint quality control system to be able to accurately control the relative picture quality among the video programs in terms of PSNR. The joint quality control system allows variable bit rate (VBR) for each video program to maintain the pre-determined relative picture quality among the aggregated video programs while keeping a constant sum of the bit rates for all programs to be transmitted over a single constant bit rate (CBR) channel. This is achieved by simultaneous controlling the video encoders to generate VBR video streams at the central controller. Furthermore we also suggest buffer regulation method based on the analysis of the constraints imposed by sender/receiver buffer sizes and total transmission rate. Through various simulation results, it is found that our quality control systems guarantee that the video buffers do not overflow and underflow and the quality control errors do not exceed 0.1 ㏈.

직렬 버스는 예약 대역폭을 보장해 주는 등시성 전송모드를 제공하고 있지만 실시간 가변비트율(VBR)의 데이터를 전송할 경우 많은 대역폭이 낭비되는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제를 개선하기 위하여 예약된 등시성 전송에는 영향을 주지 않으면서 남아있는 가용 등시성 대역폭을 이용하여 실시간 VBR 데이터를 효과적으로 전송하는 기법에 대한 것이다. 제안된 전송기법의 유용성을 확인하기 위하여 자체 개발한 1394 버스 시뮬레이터상에서 다수의 MPEG 비디오 데이터를 가지고 실험을 하였다. 실험 결과, 제안기법을 사용할 경우 전송 지연을 발생시키지 않고 등시성 대역폭을 평균 비트율 수준까지 낮추어 할당할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

A conventional CBR channel is now capable of delivering several digitally compressed video programs due to recent advances in video compression, such as MPEG-2, and digital transmission technology. This paper presents a joint video coding scheme that is to maintain a constant sum of bit rates for all the programs but to allow the variable bit rate for individual program in the transimission environment mentioned above. Thus advantages of VBR video compression can be obtained. This paper contributes in two aspects. First, a rate-distortion estimation method for MPEG-2 video is proposed, which enavle us predict the amount of bits and the distortion generated from an encoded picture at a given quantization step size and vice versa. The most attractive features of the proposed rate-distortion estimation method are its accuracy and a computational complexity low enough to be applied to real-time video coding applications. Second, this paper presents an efficient and accurate joint rate control scheme using the rate-distortion estimation results and verifies its performance with experiments. The experimental results show that our coding scheme gives a significant gain even though a small number of video programs are coded jointly. For example, a stable picture quality is maintained among the video programs as well as within a program, and additional extra programs can be transmitted over the same channel bandwidth if the proposed joint video coding scheme is used.

In this paper, we propose an efficient quality providing scheme to satisfy a diversify combination of delay bound and loss ratio requirements from users by a predictive dynamic resource allocation method for real-time video applications. For utilizing the network resources more efficiently while meeting the service requirements, we adjust the resources based on the predicted traffic and the currently provided quality level. We developed a simple delayed-packet counter updating scheme for real time QoS monitoring. Simulation results show that our proposed method can provide an accurate and flexible quality control.

This paper describes data placement schemes that provide uniform and balanced to multiple disks load for retrievals of VBR (variable bit rate) video at varying retrieval speeds. To support maximum concurent users at arbitrary-speed playbacks in a disk-arry based system, the hot spot disks should be carefully avoided. In this paper, we extend the proposed scheme, prime round-robin(PRR), for VBR video. In addition, we have compared the performance of PRR and PRR (PRR extension).

인터넷 기술이 반전함에 따라서 인터넷을 통한 서비스에 대한 관심도가 증가되고 있다. 특히 멀티미디어 서비스인 경우 QoS(Quality of Service)를 보장해야 만다. 그런데 제한된 대역폭 내에서 전송량이 급격히 증가하는 경우 네트워크 자원의 이용도와 서비스의 품질에 큰 영향을 준다. 이에 스무딩 기법은 가변 비트율(VBR : Variable Bit Rate)을 가진 비디오 스트림(Stream)을 전송할 때 네트워크 자원의 이용도와 서비스의 품질 저하를 막기 위해 전송률(Transmission rate)을 일정하게 유지시키는 기법으로 서버와 네트워크 사이의 중간노드에서 수행된다. 본 논문에서 스무딩 알고리즘을 프레임 단위로 저리할 경우 해당자원의 과부하가 탄생하므로 이를 개선한 스무딩 알고리즘을 제안하고, 기존 스무딩 알고리즘의 시간 복잡도와 성능을 중심으로 비교 분석하였다.
