Abstract

Multiple description coding (MDC) o®ers a competitive so- lution for video transmission over lossy packet networks, with a graceful degradation of the reproduced quality as the loss rate increases. This paper illustrates how redundant pictures, an error resilience tool included in H.264/AVC, can be employed in conjunction with multiple state video coding scheme, previously proposed in the literature. The proposed MDC solution is shown to provide superior perfor- mance to state-of-the-art techniques, in terms of improved average luma peak-signal-to-noise-ratio (PSNR), fewer tem- poral °uctuations in the picture quality, and improved ro- bustness to bad estimation of the loss probability in the network.

High Efficiency Video Coding

High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), also known as H.265 and MPEG-H Part 2, is a video compression standard designed as part of the MPEG-H project as a successor to the widely used Advanced Video Coding (AVC, H.264, or MPEG-4 Part 10). In comparison to AVC, HEVC offers from 25% to 50% better data compression at the same level of video quality, or substantially improved video quality at the same bit rate. It supports resolutions up to 8192×4320, including 8K UHD, and unlike the primarily 8-bit AVC, HEVC's higher fidelity Main 10 profile has been incorporated into nearly all supporting hardware.

Advanced Video Coding

Advanced Video Coding (AVC), also referred to as H.264 or MPEG-4 Part 10, is a video compression standard based on block-oriented, motion-compensated coding. It is by far the most commonly used format for the recording, compression, and distribution of video content, used by 91% of video industry developers . It supports a maximum resolution of 8K UHD. The intent of the H.264/AVC project was to create a standard capable of providing good video quality at substantially lower bit rates than previous standards (i.

Video coding format

A video coding format (or sometimes video compression format) is a content representation format for storage or transmission of digital video content (such as in a data file or bitstream). It typically uses a standardized video compression algorithm, most commonly based on discrete cosine transform (DCT) coding and motion compensation. A specific software, firmware, or hardware implementation capable of compression or decompression to/from a specific video coding format is called a video codec.
