Video and Multimedia Transmissions over Cellular Networks

Analysis, Modelling and Optimization in Live 3G Mobile Networks

herausgegeben von Markus Rupp
This excellent reference provides detailed analysis andoptimization aspects of live 3G mobile communication networks
Video and Multimedia Transmissions over Cellular Networksdescribes the state-of-the-art in the transmission of multimediaover cellular networks, evaluates the performance of the runningsystem based on the measurements and monitoring of live networks, and finally presents concepts and methods for improving of thequality in such systems.
Key Features:
* Addresses the transmission of different media over cellularnetworks, with a focus on evolving UMTS transmission systems
* Provides in-depth coverage of UMTS network architecture, and anoverview of 3GPP video services
* Describes the characteristics of the link layer errors in theUMTS Terrestrial radio Access Network (UTRAN), obtained byextensive measurements in live UMTS networks
* Covers video encoding and decoding, introducing H.264/AVC videocodec, as well as addressing various novel concepts for increasederror resilience
* Discusses the real-time capable algorithms that are suitablefor implementation in power and size limited terminals
* Presents the methods for monitoring quality, as well asanalyzing and modelling traffic evolution in the cellular mobilenetwork
This book provides a valuable reference for researchers andstudents working in the field of multimedia transmission overwireless networks. Industry experts and professionals workingwithin the field will also find this book of interest.
