Methods and apparatus are described for improving the transmission of multimedia data over wireless communication channels. These techniques include determining a physical layer packet size of the wireless communication system and determining a maximum size of a compressed header. Then, partitioning an information unit, wherein the size of the partitions are selected such that after a partition is encoded the aggregate size of the encoded partition and the compressed header are the size of the physical layer packet, or less. The techniques can be used for various types of information units, such as multimedia data, variable bit rate data streams, video streams, video teleconference stream, or voice over IP. The techniques can also be used with various over the air interfaces, such as, Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), General Packet Radio Service (GPRS), Enhanced Data GSM Environment (EDGE), or standards based on CDMA such as TIA/EIA-95-B (IS-95), TIA/EIA-98-C (IS-98), IS2000, HRDP, cdma2000, Wideband CDMA (WCDMA), and others.

This disclosure describes techniques for coding information in a scalable video coding (SVC) scheme that supports spatial scalability. In one example, a method of coding information in a SVC scheme comprises coding first video blocks defined in a base layer of the SVC scheme, and coding second video blocks defined in an enhancement layer of the SVC scheme, wherein the second video blocks provide spatial scalability enhancement relative to the first video blocks. The coding of the second video blocks includes performing inter-layer prediction for the enhancement layer relative to the base layer for a first subset of the second video blocks that fully overlap the first video blocks, and performing inter-layer prediction for the enhancement layer relative to the base layer for a second subset of the second video blocks that partially overlap the first video blocks.
摘要:
Variable length coding (VLC) techniques are described for coded block patterns (CBPs) used in block-based video coding. In VLC of CBPs, patterns of transform coefficients that are more likely to occur are coded with shorter codes, while patterns of coefficients that are less likely to occur are coded with longer codes. According to the techniques of this disclosure, several different VLC tables are stored in the coding devices. During the encoding and decoding processes, one of the VLC tables is selected and used to perform the coding of CBPs for a given video block. The table may be selected based on a number of neighboring video blocks to the current video block that include non-zero transform coefficients. The techniques may be particularly useful in the coding of video blocks of enhancement layers in scalable video coding (SVC).

摘要:
A dynamic wavelet feature-based watermark for use with digital video. Scene change detection separates digital data into one or more scenes, wherein each of the scenes is comprised of one or more frames. A temporal wavelet transformation decomposes the frames of each scene into dynamic frames and static frames. The static frames of each scene are subjected to a spatial wavelet transformation, so that the watermark can be cast into middle frequency sub-bands resulting therefrom. Polyphase-based feature selection or local block-based feature selection is used to select one or more features. The watermark is cast into the selected features by means of either (1) a comparison of energy in polyphase transform components of the selected feature, or (2) a change in value of blocked wavelet coefficients of the selected feature.
