چکیده

A novel system providing e ective and e cient access to video archives for mobile users communicating over low bandwidth error-prone wireless links is proposed. The developed system has three components: First, the middleware, implemented as mobile proxy server located at the mobile support station, is chosen for the seamless integration of both mobile users and video servers by hiding the speci c details of the underlying system. Second, for e cient video transmission, our three-dimensional signi cant-linked connected component analysis video codec well suited for wireless environments, is used. Finally, multilayer transmission error control mechanism is applied to cope with channel errors. As a result, no additional requirements are imposed on the mobile client and video server so that mobile users interact with the server in exactly the same way as stationary users, and all they experience are better picture quality, less jerky video, and shorter delays.

Improving the robustness of MPEG-4 video communications over wireless/3G mobile networks

Two major issues in providing true end-to-end wireless/mobile video capabilities are: interoperability among network platforms and robustness of video compression algorithms in error-prone environments. In this paper, we mainly focus on the second issue and show how error resilience techniques can be used to improve the video quality. We argue that the error resilient tools provided within the ...
