Applications and improvement of H.264 in medical video compression

This paper aims at applying H.264 in medical video compression applications and improving the H.264 rate control algorithm with better perceptual quality. First, H.264 is briefly reviewed and introduced to the area of medical video compression. Second, a new motion complexity (MC) measure is defined to express the complexity of motion contents in a video frame, and a new H.264 rate control scheme with the MC measure and perceptual bit allocation is proposed for medical video compression. Third, two sets of experiments are conducted: the comparison between MPEG-4 and H.264, and the comparison between JVT-H014 , which is the H.264 adopted rate control algorithm, and our proposed rate control scheme. The first set of experiments shows that compared with MPEG-4, H.264 can achieve a significant average peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) gain of up to 4.35 dB for the test medical video sequences, and thus is much more effective when applied in medical video compression. The second set of experiments shows that compared with H014, the proposed rate control scheme can achieve better perceptual video quality, with an average PSNR gain of up to 0.19 dB for the test medical video sequences.

Optimal resource allocation for Medium Grain Scalable video transmission over MIMO channels

In this paper we investigate an optimal solution for adaptive H.264/SVC video transmission over Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) channels.We first write the end-to-end distortion of the H.264/SVC video transmission over a diagonal MIMO channel. The total distortion is expressed following three physical layer parameters: power allocation, modulation spectral efficiency and Error Code Correction (ECC) code rate. Minimizing the total distortion is considered as an optimization problem containing both discrete and continuous variables.We use the Lagrangian method associated with Karush–Kuhn and Tucker conditions to find out the optimal continuous physical layer parameters. Concerting the discrete modulation spectral efficiency and ECC code rate, we exploit information of the MIMO system to remove all suboptimal configurations. Therefore, the optimal power allocation is computed only for a reduced number of discrete configurations.The performance of the proposed solution is evaluated over both statistical and realistic MIMO channels. Results show that the proposed solution performs an optimal resource allocation to achieve the best QoS regardless the channel conditions.

Adaptive quantization-parameter clip scheme for smooth quality in H.264/AVC

In this paper, we investigate the issues over the smooth quality and the smooth bit rate during rate control (RC) in H.264/AVC. An adaptive quantization-parameter (Q(p)) clip scheme is proposed to optimize the quality smoothness while keeping the bit-rate fluctuation at an acceptable level. First, the frame complexity variation is studied by defining a complexity ratio between two nearby frames. Second, the range of the generated bits is analyzed to prevent the encoder buffer from overflow and underflow. Third, based on the safe range of the generated bits, an optimal Q(p) clip range is developed to reduce the quality fluctuation. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed Q(p) clip scheme can achieve excellent performance in quality smoothness and buffer regulation.     

Rate control for consistent visual quality of H.264/AVC encoding

In this paper, a novel rate control scheme with sliding window basic unit is proposed to achieve consistent or smooth visual quality for H.264/AVC based video streaming. A sliding window consists of a group of successive frames and moves forward by one frame each time. To make the sliding window scheme possible for real-time video streaming, the initial encoder delay inherently in a video streaming system is utilized to generate all the bits of a window in advance, so that these bits for transmission are ready before their due time. The use of initial encoder delay does not introduce any additional delay in video streaming but benefits visual quality as compared to traditional one-pass rate control algorithms of H.264/AVC. Then, a Sliding Window Buffer Checking (SWBC) algorithm is proposed for buffer control at sliding window level and it accords with traditional buffer measurement of H.264/AVC. Extensive experimental results exhibit that higher coding performance, consistent visual quality and compliant buffer constraint can be achieved by the proposed algorithm.

Radio resource management for cellular CDMA systems supporting heterogeneous services

A novel radio resource management (RRM) scheme for the support of packet-switched transmission in cellular CDMA systems is proposed by jointly considering the physical, link, and network layer characteristics. The proposed resource management scheme is comprised of a combination of power distribution, rate allocation, service scheduling, and connection admission control. Power distribution allows individual connections to achieve their required signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio, while rate allocation guarantees the required delay/jitter for real-time traffic and the minimum transmission rate requirement for non-real-time traffic. Efficient rate allocation is achieved by making use of the randomness and burstiness; of the packet generation process. At the link layer, a packet scheduling scheme is developed based on information derived from power distribution and rate allocation to achieve quality of service (QoS) guarantee. Packet scheduling efficiently utilizes the system resources in every time slot and improves the packet throughput for non-real-time traffic. At the network layer, a connection admission control (CAC) scheme based on the lower layer resource allocation information is proposed. The CAC scheme makes use of user mobility information to reduce handoff connection dropping probability (HCDP). Theoretical analysis of the grade of service performance, in terms of new connection blocking probability, HCDP, and resource utilization, is given. Numerical results show that the proposed RRM scheme can achieve both effective QoS guarantee and efficient resource utilization.
