Optimal packetisation of MPEG-4 using RTP over mobile networks
The introduction of third-generation wireless networks should result in real-time mobile
video communications becoming a reality. Delivery of such video is likely to be facilitated by the realtime
transport protocol (RTP). Careful packetisation of the video data is necessary to ensure the
optimal trade-off between channel utilisation and error robustness. Theoretical analyses for two basic
schemes of MPEG-4 data encapsulation within RTP packets are presented. Simulations over a GPRS
(general packet radio service) network are used to validate the analysis of the most efficient scheme.
Finally, a motion adaptive system for deriving MPEG-4 video packet sizes is presented. Further
simulations demonstrate the benefits of the adaptive system
