Channel-adaptive video streaming using packet path diversity and rate-distortion optimized reference picture selection

چکیده
In this paper, we present error-resilient Internet video transmission using path diversity and rate-distortion optimized reference picture selection. Under this scheme, the optimal packet dependency is determined adapting to channel characteristics and video content, to achieve a better trade-off between coding efficiency and forming independent streams to increase errorresilience. Packets are sent over the selected path that minimizes the distortion, while taking advantage of path diversity. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed scheme provides significant gains over video redundancy coding and the NACK mode of conventional reference picture selection.

متن کاملLow-latency video transmission over lossy packet networks using rate-distortion optimized reference picture selection
Today’s Internet video streaming systems employ buffering and multiple retransmissions to guarantee the correct reception of each packet, which leads to high latency in media delivery. In this work, a novel scheme of dynamic management of the dependency across packets is proposed using optimal reference picture selection at the frame level that adapts to the channel. The optimal selection of th...
متن کاملVideo streaming with diversity
Packet path diversity is one of the recent advances in networkadaptive video streaming. In this paper we first examine two specific techniques for video streaming that exploit diversity to achieve improved performance. The first technique uses a framework for rate-distortion optimized scheduling of the packet transmissions over the available network paths. The second technique exploits feedback...
متن کاملAdvances in channel-adaptive video streaming
We review recent advances in channel-adaptive video streaming. Adaptive media playout at the client can be used to reduce receiver buffering and therefore average latency, and provide a limited rate scalability. Rate-distortion optimized packet scheduling determines the best packet to send given the distortion reduction associated with sending that packet, interpacket dependencies, and the succ...

Today’s Internet video streaming systems employ buffering and retransmission to guarantee the correct reception of each packet. This leads to high latency in media delivery. In this paper, we present an efficient low-latency Internet video streaming system that does not require retransmission of lost packets. We pre-store multiple representations of certain frames on the server such that a repr...
