Minimax disappointment criterion for video broadcasting
نویسندگان
چکیده
Users of media broadcasting services generally experience different grades of overall performance because of the non-uniform quality of their channel conditions. In order to provide all users equally satisfactory performance, we propose a new performance criterion named “minimax disappointment”, based on layered service levels and the basic principle of joint source-channel coding [1]. This criterion minimizes for all users the maximum value of performance degradation between the received performance and the expected optimal performance, given each user’s individual channel situation. In support of this criterion, we develop two broadcasting systems and a gradient-based optimization scheme. Our systems achieve universally near-maximal performance for multiple user classes by providing layered service. 1

Minimax Disappointment Criterion for Broadcasting Based on Joint Source-channel Coding
Users of media broadcasting services generally experience different grades of overall performance because of the non-uniform conditions of their channels. In order to provide all users equally satisfactory performance, we propose a new performance criterion named “minimax disappointment” (MD), based on layered service levels and the basic principle of joint source-channel coding [1]. This crite...
متن کاملAn Efficient Hierarchical Modulation based Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Transmission Scheme for Digital Video Broadcasting
Due to the increase of users the efficient usage of spectrum plays an important role in digital terrestrial television networks. In digital video broadcasting, local and global content are transmitted by single frequency network and multifrequency network respectively. Multifrequency network support transmission of global content and it consumes large spectrum. Similarly local content are well ...
متن کاملObjectives for New Error Criteria for Mobile Broadcasting of Streaming Audiovisual Services
This paper demonstrates the need of and objectives for new error criteria for mobile broadcasting and the problems related to defining numerical error criteria for video services. The current error criterion used in digital video broadcasting to handheld (DVB-H), namely, multiprotocol encapsulation forward error correction (MPE-FEC) frame error ratio (MFER) 5%, was defined to enable instantaneo...
متن کاملRobustness in portfolio optimization based on minimax regret approach
Portfolio optimization is one of the most important issues for effective and economic investment. There is plenty of research in the literature addressing this issue. Most of these pieces of research attempt to make the Markowitz’s primary portfolio selection model more realistic or seek to solve the model for obtaining fairly optimum portfolios. An efficient frontier in the ...
متن کاملDisappointment in Social Choice Protocols
Social choice theory is a theoretical framework for analysis of combining individual preferences, interests, or welfares to reach a collective decision or social welfare in some sense. We introduce a new criterion for social choice protocols called ”social disappointment”. Social disappointment happens when the outcome of a voting system occurs for those alternatives which are at the end of at ...
