Most Embedded Web Camera Server products currently deployed on the market adopt JPEG for compression of video data continuously acquired from the cameras. However, JPEG does not efficiently compress the continuous video stream, and is not appropriate for the Internet where the transmission bandwidth is not guaranteed. In our previous work, we presented the result of designing and implementing an embedded web camera streaming server using MPEG4 codec. But the server in our previous work did not show good performance since one CPU had to both compress and process the network transmission. In this paper, we present our efforts to improve our previous result by using dual CPUs, where DSP is employed for data compression and StrongARM is used for network processing. Better performance has been observed, but it is found that still more time is needed to optimize the performance.

In the HDTV video codec, conventional the padding method of DEPA(DTV essential padding area) region is aimed at minimizing the redundant information to be transmitted. This article propose a method to transmit additional data by using DEPA region. The proposed method is effective for the channel and storage because it can reduce the amount of bits while preventing deterioration of image quality by inserting binary gray image blocks into the DEPA region. Additionally this algorithm can be used in various fields because it conforms to the standards of MPEG-2, ATSC, and DVB encoders.

최근 모바일 기기에서 딥러닝 모델을 사용하기 위한 경량화 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그중 모델의 가중치 표현 bit를 줄이는 양자화와 사용하기 위한 다양한 압축 알고리즘이 개발되었다. 하지만 대부분의 양자화 및 압축 알고리즘들은 한 번 이상의 Fine-tuning을 거쳐야 하는데 이 과정은 모바일 환경에서 수행하기에는 연산복잡도가 너무 높다. 따라서 본 논문은 양자화된 가중치를 High Efficiency Video Coding(HEVC)을 통해 압축하는 방법을 제안하고 정확도와 압축률을 실험한다. 실험결과는 양자화만 실시한 경우 대비 크기는 25%의 감소했지만, 정확도는 0.7% 감소했다. 따라서 이런 결과는 모바일 기기에 가중치를 전송하는 과정에 적용될 수 있다.

포인트 클라우드 콘텐츠는 3 차원 공간에 수십만 개가 넘는 점들의 집합으로 이루어진 3D 데이터로 각 점들은 3 차원 공간의 좌표 데이터를 필요로 하고 추가적으로 색 (color), 반사율 (reflectance), 법선 벡터 (normal vector) 등과 같은 속성으로 구성되어 있다. 기존 2D 영상보다 한단계 높은 차원을 가진 3D 포인트 클라우드를 사용자에게 효율적으로 제공하기 위해서 고효율의 압축 기술 연구가 진행되고 있는데, 다양한 장치에서 발생하는 성능 차이에 구애 받지 않고 사용자에게 알맞은 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 다양한 확장성에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 포인트 클라우드 압축에 사용되는 Video-based Point Cloud Compression (V-PCC) 구조에 SHVC 코덱을 적용하여, 밀도 확장성을 갖는 포인트 클라우드 압축 비트스트림을 생성하는 방안을 제안하였다.

EBS started 2HD MMS experimental broadcasting for the first time in Korea on Feb. 11, 2015. It uses the picture compression technique based on MPEG-2 CODEC, and applies the result of the experiment about variable bit rates and changes according to the scanning types, 1080i and 720p. But when changing channels, the delay in displaying picture occurs because of the operation of the variable GOP on MMS broadcasting, which optimizes image quality by application variable bit rates. In this study, verified the relationship between the decoding time of I frames and the GOP set in the encoding step by experimenting and analyzing ON-AIR TS. By using the verification data and adjusts the Encoder GOP parameters, improved the different video display time delays according to the scanning mode 1080i and 720p.

As studies on ubiquitous computing are actively conducted, desire for various services, including image transmission storage, search and remote monitoring. has been expanding into mobile environment as well as to PCs. while CCTV (closed circuit TV) and un DVR (Digital video Recording) are used in places where security service such as intrusion detection system is required, these are high-end equipment. So it is not easy for ordinary users or household and small-sized companies to use them. Besides, they are difficult to be carried and camera solution for mobile device does not support high-quality function and provides low-definition of QVGA for picture quality. Therefore, in this study, design and implementation of embedded system of high-definition image transmission for ubiquitous mobile device which is not inferior to PC or DVR are described. To this end, usage of dedicated CPU for mobile device and design and implementation of MPEG-4 H/W CODEC also are examined. The implemented system showed excellent performance in mobile environment, in terms of speed, picture quality.

Existing Android applications for streaming video in real time are dependent on the codec, which composes the encoding function, and the version of Android operating system. Also, for streaming video in real time, most applications should be connected with a separate desktop PC. To overcome these disadvantages, we propose a new application, which records and streams video in real time. Specifically, the proposed application uses the flash video file format, which is the common media file format supported by various versions of Android operating system. Through experiments, we show that it is possible for the proposed application to record the video screens more than 20 frames per second and to stream it in real time while using the existing video encoding methods.

The compression performance of HEVC (high efficiency video coding) is improved 40%, compared to H.264/AVC. Since the existing 3D video CODEC is based on H.264/AVC or MPEG-2, we can improve the compression performance when we use the proposed stereoscopic video coding method based on HEVC. Since the stereoscopic video has the temporal and inter-view correlations, the videos of the left and right cameras encode together to improve the performance. Especially, we implemented the proposed technique using HM(HEVC test model) 3.4. To compare the performance of the proposed method, we only compare the right view video which is coded using the inter-view prediction. The proposed method which is considered inter-view correlation is improved the performance which BDBR reduce about 36.24% and BDPSNR increase approximately 1.19 dB compared to the separated-coding method.

This paper researched the operation methods of software video teleconferencing on the tactical communication networks under 1Mbps. The tactical communication networks have limited bandwidths, frequent data losses and transmission delays due to the unstable networks. In addition, the bandwidth for video teleconferencing has to be much smaller since the Army Tactical Command Information System(ATCIS) has priority of using the bandwidth. This paper analyzed such restrictions of tactical communication networks, presented some methods to improve the quality of the software video teleconferencing on the tactical communication networks and their actual experiments as well. It is applied in the first place to re-transmit the lost packets and to reduce the image size for the data traffic. Nothing is better for the video teleconferencing than to provide the bandwidth enough for every user. However, on the tactical communication networks with the limited bandwidth, video teleconferencing can be improved by optimizing the compression rate of image data, the number of image frames, the audio codec and the usage of audio compensation data.
