Content-based Unequal Error Protection Scheme for Enhanced Wireless Video Broadcast

Supporting good video quality services over wireless network is challenging due to system constraints, dynamic channel condition and high packet loss rate. Hence more efficient error resilience mechanism is necessary. In this paper, error protection schemes are investigated and Content-based Unequal Error Protection Scheme is proposed for improved quality of wireless video services. The study aims at developing a transmission scheme capable of enhancing the quality of wireless video services. The performance of the proposed unequal error protection scheme is tested on simulated wireless platform. The experimental results obtained under various test conditions demonstrate that the proposed scheme can enhance the received video quality performance.
