In network delivery of compressed video, packets may be lost if the channel is unreliable like Internet. Such losses tend to of cur in burst like continuous bit-stream error. In this paper, we propose an effective error-concealment approach to which an error resilient video encoding approach is applied against burst errors and which reduces a complexity of error concealment at the decoder using data hiding. To improve the performance of error concealment, a temporal and spatial error resilient video encoding approach at encoder is developed to be robust against burst errors. For spatial area of error concealment, block shuffling scheme is introduced to isolate erroneous blocks caused by packet losses. For temporal area of error concealment, we embed parity bits in content data for motion vectors between intra frames or continuous inter frames and recovery loss packet with it at decoder after transmission While error concealment is performed on error blocks of video data at decoder, it is computationally costly to interpolate error video block using neighboring information. So, in this paper, a set of feature are extracted at the encoder and embedded imperceptibly into the original media. If some part of the media data is damaged during transmission, the embedded features can be extracted and used for recovery of lost data with bi-direction interpolation. The use of data hiding leads to reduced complexity at the decoder. Experimental results suggest that our approach can achieve a reasonable quality for packet loss up to 30% over a wide range of video materials.

Traditional live video streaming systems support the limited field of view (FOV) of image to the remote users. A server system based on the pan/tilt camera provides a user with wide view by changing the view direction of the camera mechanically. But, when many clients try to access to the server, this system can not offer their own view to every user simultaneously, and moreover it has the delay by camera motion. In order to offer wide views to several users, we propose new streaming system using the panorama image that has wide view. Our system is a kind of implementation of software pan/tilt camera. The server acquires panorama video and sends a part of the video to clients. Then, each client can control their own view. We need the effective way to reduce the average transmission data size and server burden to the compression because generally the full size of panorama video is too big to be served by the real-time streaming. To solve this problem, we propose an strip-based video compression and adaptive transmission of the compressed multiple strip videos. Experimental results show that our system can be adapted quickly to the change of view and the number of clients. Furthermore, proposed method effectively reduce the transmission data.

In this paper, a design of the reliable video-conference system using CTI(Computer Telephony Integration) technology is proposed. When video-conference is run on the current existing Internet, the transmission delay problem for voice data traffic can be frequently occurred. In order to transmit the real-time voice data through the Internet efficiently, some complicated algorithms such as CODEC(Code/Decode) should be applied. It can cause further excessive processing delay which can affect the overall performance. The voice traffic is usually transmitted through the reliable PSTN(Public Switched Telephone Network) in the CTI system. In this paper a new architecture, in which PSTN for voice traffic and Internet for video traffic are used at the same time instead of using Internet by itself, is proposed to relieve the problems on a video conference.

This paper provides a method for compression transmission of on-chip bus data. As the data traffic on on-chip buses is rapidly increasing with enlarged video resolutions, many video processor chips suffer from a lack of bus bandwidth and their IP cores have to wait for a longer time to get a bus grant. In multimedia data such as images and video, the adjacent data signals very often have little or no difference between them. Taking advantage of this point, this paper develops a simple bus data compression method to improve the chip performance and presents its hardware implementation. The method is applied to a Video Codec - 1 (VC-1) decoder chip and reduces the processing time of one macro-block by 13.6% and 10.3% for SD and HD videos, respectively

The use of scalable video coding scheme has been regarded as a promising solution for guaranteeing the quality of service of the video streaming over the Internet because it is a capable coding scheme to perform quality adaptation depending on network conditions. In this paper, we use a streaming model that transmits base layer using TCP and enhancement layers using DCCP, which try to provide transmission reliability of the BL and TCP friendliness. Unlike pervious works, the proposed algorithm performs rate adaptation based on playout buffer status. The PoB status of the client is sent back periodically to the server and serves as a network congestion indicator. Experimental results show that our scheme improves streaming quality comparing with pervious scheme in the case of not only constant/dynamic background flows but also VBR-encoded video sequence.

The H.264/SVC enables network-adaptive video transmission to smart device which uses wireless network. But, quality scalability of H.264/SVC does not consider personal subjective image quality. In addition, its network efficiency also does not optimized because it uses MGS(Medium Grained Scalability) and CGS(Coarse Grained Scalability). Thus, this paper proposed a new scalable ROI algorithm for not only subjective image quality improvement but also network adaptation. To experiment our proposed a scheme, we added designed algorithm to JSVM(Joint Scalable Video Model) open source video codec of H.264/SVC. Experiment was performed according to the pre-defined scenario for simulating various network conditions. Finally, experimental result showed our proposed scalable ROI scheme. It is better than traditional non-selective scheme in subjective video quality.

Although the proliferation of real-time multimedia services over the Internet might indicate its successfulness in dealing with heterogeneous environments, it is obvious, on the other hand, that the internet now has to cope with a flood of multimedia data which consumes most of network communication channels due to a great deal of video or audio streams. Therefore, for the purpose of an efficient and appropriate utilization of network resources, it requires to develop and deploy a new scalable transmission technique n consideration of respective network environment and individual clients computing power. Also, we can eliminate the waste effects of storage device and data transmission overhead in that the same video stream duplicated according to QoS. The purpose of this paper is to develop a technology that can adjust the amount of data transmitted as an MPEG video stream according to its given communication bandwidth, and technique that can reflect dynamic bandwidth while playing a video stream. For this purpose, we introduce a media scalable media decomposer working on server side, and a scalable media composer working o n a client side, and then propose a scalable transmission method and a media sender and a media receiver in consideration of dynamic QoS. Those methods proposed her can facilitate an effective use of network resources, and provide multimedia MPEG video services in real-time with respect to individual client computing environment.

In this paper, we develop a prototype of the Optical SCM transmission module. This module is possible to application to electric facilities for control and measurements. Transmission channel number is two channels, namely, image and digital signal. In the image transmission, modulation method is AM, baseband signal is NTSC video signal and demodulation use PLL. Modulation of digital signal is QPSK, 1.544Mbps and demodulation use PLL. First, we calculate theoretical analysis about RF and Optical link in the transmission. This calculation is well correspond with practical system and transmission experiment is excellent, but this is only two channel model. And now, we plan to multichannel transmission to measure intermodulation, frequency assignments and optimal channel numbers et al.

The transmission issues for the scalable video coding extension of H.264/AVC (H.264 SVC) video has been widely studied. In this paper, we propose an objective video-quality assessment metric based on no-reference for H.264 SVC using scalability information. The proposed metric estimate the perceptual video-quality reflecting error conditions with the consideration of the motion vectors, error propagation patterns with the hierarchical prediction structure, quantization parameters, and number of frame which damaged by packet loss. The proposed metric reflects the human perceptual quality of video and we evaluate the performance of proposed metric by using correlation relationship between differential mean opinion score (DMOS) as a subjective quality and proposed one.

The multi-view video is a collection of multiple videos capturing the same scene at different viewpoints. The multi-view video can be used in various applications, including free viewpoint TV and three-dimensional TV. Since the data size of the multi-view video linearly increases as the number of cameras, it is necessary to compress multi-view video data for efficient storage and transmission. The multi-view video can be coded using the concept of the layered depth image (LDI). In this paper, we describe a procedure to generate LDI from the natural multi-view video and present a method to encode multi-view video using the concept of LDI.
