Despite of the recent progresses in reliable and high bandwidth communication, packet loss
is still probable and needs special attention in real-time video streaming applications …

The beamwidth of a linear array decreases as frequency increases. For wideband
beamformers such as microphone arrays intended for teleconferencing, this frequency …

Delay sensitive video transmission over error prone networks can suffer from packet
erasures when channel conditions are not favorable. Use of error concealment (EC) at the …

This chapter reviews video error concealment methods that deal with replacing missing
pixels, blocks, or slices at the decoder. The chapter guides the reader through the various …

This paper presents a robust true motion estimation algorithm, designated as MPMVP (Multi-
pass and Motion Vector Propagation), to enhance the accuracy of the motion vector fields in …

Boundary matching algorithm (BMA) and decoder motion vector estimation (DMVE) are two
well-known temporal error concealment methods using the matching-based approach. In …

Transmission of highly compressed video bitstreams can result in packet erasures when
channel status is unfavorable, the consequence being not only the corruption of a single …

Streaming video would become a popular form of transferring video over next-generation
wireless overlay networks. As transport protocol for streaming video, TCP-friendly rate …

A method for performing temporal error concealment is provided. The method includes the
following steps: detecting a damaged macroblock having four 8× 8 damaged blocks; …

In stereo video communication over the Internet, video quality is always not guaranteed
since packets losses always occur. The loss of packets may result in the loss of a whole right …
