چکیده

SP-frame is a new picture type of H.264 that can be perfectly reconstructed using one of several reference frames. In this paper, we discuss how this property of SP-frame can be exploited for controlling error propagation caused by packet losses. We first illustrate the benefits of the scheme through example. We then present results for optimized streaming where PSNR performance of proposed usage of SP-frame is compared to that of P-frames only. Results show that SPframes can noticeably reduce distortion caused by packet losses compare to schemes based on P-frames only.

Video streaming with SP and SI frames

SP and SI frames are new picture types introduced in the latest video coding standard H.264. They allow driftfree bitstream switching and can also be used for error-resilience and random access. We investigate the benefits of SI and SP frames for error resilience as compared to periodic I frame insertion. We discuss the rate-distortion performance of SI and SP frames based on empirical rate-dis...

A New Unequal Error Protection Technique Based on the Mutual Information of the MPEG-4 Video Frames over Wireless Networks

The performance of video transmission over wireless channels is limited by the channel noise. Thus many error resilience tools have been incorporated into the MPEG-4 video compression method. In addition to these tools, the unequal error protection (UEP) technique has been proposed to protect the different parts in an MPEG-4 video packet with different channel coding rates based on the rate...

Rate-distortion analysis of SP and SI frames

SP and SI frames in the H.264 video coding standard can be used for error resilience, bitstream switching or random access. Despite a widespread interest in these new types of frames, no work so far has investigated, in a systematic way, their rate-distortion efficiency. In this paper, we propose a model for the rate-distortion performance of SI and SP frames. A comparison to experimental resul...

A Method to Reduce Effects of Packet Loss in Video Streaming Using Multiple Description Coding

Multiple description (MD) coding has evolved as a promising technique for promoting error resiliency of multimedia system in real-time application programs over error-prone communicational channels. Although multiple description lattice vector quantization (MDCLVQ) is an efficient method for transmitting reliable data in the context of potential error channels, this method doesn’t consider disc...

Improved Error Resilient H.264 Coding Scheme Using SP/SI Macroblocks

An error resilient H.264 coding scheme using SP/SI macroblocks is presented in this work. It is able to generate alternative SP macroblocks utilizing multiple reference frames [2] and the concealed versions of the corrupted frames [3]. These alternative macroblocks are used to replace the original ones in the output video stream to protect them from being affected by previous errors detected at...
