Scalable video coding is a promising solution for efficient video content distribution to users having heterogeneous network and terminal capabilities. Thanks to its inherent multidimensional adaptability, a scalable bit stream can be used to simultaneousl ...
Wireless communications in lossy media encounter growing interest, with applications as telemedicine, ground sensing, remote pipeline sensing, and food quality testing among others. As an application, an autonomous implantable Body Sensor Node for monitori ...
Video transcoding is an important step to enable interoperability between different networks, terminals, applications, and services for video communication. This paper studies the influence of typical video transcoding artifacts due to frame rate reduction ...
A modelling technique is proposed for direct use of the discrete complex image method (DCIM) to derive closed-form expressions for electric field components encountered in the electric field integral equation (EFIE) representing a lossy half space problem. ...
We address the joint problem of clustering heterogenous clients and allocating scalable video source rate and FEC redundancy in IPTV systems. We propose a streaming solution that delivers varying portions of the scalably encoded content to different client ...
