Packet Video Communications over ATM Networks

Video on ATM networks: fundamental theory and practical network design

Packet video over ATM is increasingly the technology of choice for a wide range of "converged" network multimedia applications, including videoconferencing, distance learning, video-on-demand, and Internet-based multiplayer gaming. Packet Video Communications over ATM Networks brings together the practical and theoretical information professionals need to design ATM-based video networks for maximum performance, reliability, and flexibility.

The authors first introduce networked packet video, its advantages, applications, and challenges. They review each aspect of an ATM network relevant to packet video, including ATM layers, packetization techniques, buffering, and video coding. Next, they address each leading approach to increasing the scalability of ATM-based video networks, including data partitioning; SNR scalability; and spatial, temporal, and hybrid scalability. Coverage also includes:

• Fundamentals of MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, and MPEG-7 compression
• Rate control, multiplexing, video delay, and jitter
• State-of-the-art error and loss concealment strategies
• Asynchronous transfer of video across the public Internet
• Controlling Quality of Service: service classes, QoS parameters, requirements, coding techniques, and traffic management
• Distributed multimedia video systems, including interactive television and related services

Packet Video Communications over ATM Networks reflects the latest work in the field, providing both underlying theory and principles and today's best design techniques. For video and telecommunications engineers designing or deploying networked video, it will be an invaluable resource.
