In this paper, we propose an error-resilient transmission technique for the H.263 video data stream over wireless networks. The proposed algorithm employs bit rearrangement hierarchically, providing the robust and exact synchronization against the bit errors, without requiring extra redundant information. In addition, we propose the recovery algorithm for the lost or erroneous motion vectors. We implement the encoder and decoder, based on the H.263 standard, and evaluate the proposed algorithm through intensive computer simulation. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm yields good image quality, in spite of the channel errors, and prevents the error propagation both in the spatial and the temporal domain efficiently.

멀티미디어 데이터를 이종의 수신자에게 안정적으로 전달하고자 하는 것은 인터넷에서 중요한 주제 중의 하나이다. 특히, 최근에 소개된 계층형 MDC(Layered Multiple Description Coding) 기법은 오버레이 멀티캐스트에서 이 문제를 효율적으로 해결하는데 중요한 접근방법이다. 그러나, 이 과정에서 저속 수렴(slow convergence)과 참가 실험(join experiment) 동안에의 손실과 같은 문제가 새롭게 발생하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 비디오 스트리밍 서비스에서 위의 문제를 해결할 수 있는 효율적인 계층형 멀티캐스트 혼잡 제어 기법을 소개한다. 여기서 제시하는 기법의 가장 특징적인 점은 사용자가 수신할 계층(layer)의 수를 결정하기 위하여 패킷페어(packet-pair)방식에 기반한 수신률 조절 메커니즘을 사용하는 것이다. 결과적으로 본 논문에서는 수신자가 최적의 전송률에 빠르게 수렴하면서도 손실을 최소화할 수 있는 종단-대-종단간 혼잡 제어 기법을 제시한다.

This paper proposes a prototype realization of multi-view HD video transport system with synchronized multiplexing over IP networks. The proposed synchronized multiplexing considers the synchronization during video acquisition and the multiplexing for the interactive view-selection during transport. For the synchronized acquisition from multiple HDV camcorders through IEEE 1394 interface, we estimate the timeline differences among MPEG-2 compressed video streams by using global time of network between the cameras and a server and correct timelines of video streams by changing the time stamp of the MPEG-2 system stream. Also, we multiplex a selected number of acquired HD views at the MPEG-2 TS (transport stream) level for the interactive view-selection during transport. Thus, with the proposed synchronized multiplexing scheme, we can display synchronized HD view.

In this paper, using the indoor LED-ID communication system have researched for how to transmit video signals. In LED-ID communications use the LEDs for lighting features at the same time communication is an effective way to implement. This proposed system using Visible light(RGB) as way to transmit signals, depends on the mixture RGB, which decided the color of light, moreover, each things determined their performance. However, if the video signal were fixed allocated RGB to transmit such as the original system, the importance of the each signals a different occur the limit on the quality of the video than SVC signals. In order to solve this problem in this paper, according to the RGB mixture ratios analyze the performance for the White LED, which analyzed based on allocating the SVC signal by transmitting to improve the quality of the video was about how researched.

In this paper, we propose a new embedded video compression scheme which uses three-dimensional rate-distortion optimization based block coder. After the proposed scheme removes temporal redundancy by applying the motion compensated temporal filtering(MCTF) on input video frames, two dimensional discrete wavelet transform is applied on video frames to remove spatial redundancy. The three-dimensional wavelet coefficients generated in this way are sorted according to their expected rate-distortion slope and encoded by using the three-dimensional block partition coding method. The proposed scheme also uses both the effective color video coding method which maintains embedded features, and the efficient bit-rate control method. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme not only produces embedded bit-streams, but also outperforms existing video compression schemes.

In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised video object extraction algorithm for individual images or image sequences with low depth of field (DOF). Low DOF is a popular photographic technique which enables the representation of the photographer's intention by giving a clear focus only on an object of interest (OOI). We first describe a fast and efficient scheme for extracting OOIs from individual low-DOF images and then extend it to deal with image sequences with low DOF in the next part. The basic algorithm unfolds into three modules. In the first module, a higher-order statistics map, which represents the spatial distribution of the high-frequency components, is obtained from an input low-DOF image. The second module locates the block-based OOI for further processing. Using the block-based OOI, the final OOI is obtained with pixel-level accuracy. We also present an algorithm to extend the extraction scheme to image sequences with low DOF. The proposed system does not require any user assistance to determine the initial OOI. This is possible due to the use of low-DOF images. The experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm can serve as an effective tool for applications, such as 2D to 3D and photo-realistic video scene generation.

In this paper we propose a video coding method and associated packetization and decoding methods for error resilient transmission over the Internet. The proposed method re-organizes the input image into several mutually similar subimages. For this case, if the one of the subimage is lost in the network, the lost one is recovered by the proposed error concealment method which uses the correctly received other subimages. The performance of the proposed method is confirmed by the empirical results. The proposed method is not limited to the Internet communications but is applicable to the other packet-based networks.

Multi-hop wireless mesh networks (WMNs) suffer from significant packet losses due to insufficient available bandwidth and high channel error probability. To conquer packet losses, end-to-end (E2E) error control schemes have been proposed. However, in WMNs, E2E error control schemes are not effective in adapting to the time-varying network condition due to large delay. Thus, in this paper, we propose a network-adaptive error control for video streaming over WMNs that flexibly operates E2E and hop-by-hop (HbH) error control according to network condition. Moreover, to provide lightweight support at intermediate nodes for HbH error control, we use path-partition-based adaptation. To verify the proposed scheme, we implement it and evaluate its transport performance through MPEG-2 video streaming over a real IEEE 802.11a-based WMN testbed.

Protection to the multimedia contents is inevitable to ensure that only authorized users be able to access the protected contents for consumption. Since protection mechanisms need to be designed efficiently by exploiting the type of the contents, we propose a protection scheme for the video bitstream encoded by Scalable Video Coding (SVC) technique. Our scheme exploits the property of SVC in which a video is encoded into spatial, temporal, and quality scalability layers. By applying our proposed protection scheme to the appropriate scalability layers we can effectively control the SVC contents completely or partially. Each layer can be flexibly protected with different encryption keys or even with different encryption algorithms. The algorithms that are used to protect each layer are described by the standardized protection description tool, which is the MPEG-21 Intellectual Property Management and Protection (IPMP) Components. In this paper, we present the design of the proposed layered SVC protection scheme, its implementation and experimental results. The experiment result shows that the proposed layered SVC protection scheme is very effective and can easily be applied.
