Abstract:
A channel capacity estimation and prediction method for rate adaptive wireless video is provided to optimize a video/channel coding rate based on a channel capacity estimation value by a video transmitting device if the video receiving device feeds back channel capacity, thereby increasing adaptability of a coding rate by accurate channel capacity estimation. A channel capacity estimator(121) estimates a BER(Bit Error Rate) of each received video packet by using additional channel state information. The channel capacity estimator estimate channel capacity by the estimated BER and feeds back the estimated channel capacity to the video transmitting device. A decoder(123) channel-decodes a received video stream by using the channel additional channel state information and video-decodes the channel-decoded video stream to recover.

An image separator(211) temporally separates an input image. A first encoder transmits parity by encoding a part of the separated input image. A down-sampler(214) spatially reduces the rest of the separated input image. A second encoder encodes and transmits the reduced image.
Abstract:
A method for reducing arbitrary-ratio up-sampling operation using context of macroblock, and a method and an apparatus for encoding/decoding by using the same are provided to reduce the operation quantity of an enlargement calculation by using the information of the peripheral block in a scalable video encoding and decoding. An arbitrary macroblock is selected to successively examine a mode of each macroblock of the lower layer(S510). It is determined at least the selected macroblock or a peripheral macroblock is an intra macroblock(S520). If one of the macroblocks is the intra macrobloc, the selected macroblock is enlarged(S530). It is determined whether a mode investigation is finished for all macroblocks of the lower layer image(S540). If the adaptive enlargement process for all macroblocks is completed, the encoding of the higher layer image is performed.

A wavelength initializing method using an external lookup table, and an optical transceiver of a wavelength variable type using the same are provided to perform wavelength initialization of a self-tuning way easily by mounting the lookup table to a controller of an external host and sharing a control function including a lookup function with the host. An optical transceiver(420) converts electrical signals into optical signals of wavelength variable type. A memory unit(430) stores a lookup table including information controlling the wavelength of the optical signals, and transmits the lookup table to an external host after connecting to the external host. The optical transceiver comprises a laser driver(412) which generates bias current, a laser diode(422) which converts electric signals into optical signals, and a wavelength control unit(423) which controls the wavelength of the optical signals after receiving the wavelength control information of the lookup table.
Abstract:
A PCS(Physical Coding Sublayer) apparatus and the Ethernet layer architecture of a T-PON(Tunable-Wavelength Passive Optical Network System) having a wavelength variable type optical source are provided to support a wavelength initialization and alignment of an ONT(Optical Network Terminal) based on a PLC-ECL(Planar Lightwave Circuit-External Cavity Laser) by independently determining an ONT optical signal. A PCS apparatus of a T-PON having a wavelength variable type optical source includes a wavelength monitoring unit(615), and an automatic recognition unit(614), a transmission unit(611), and a receiving unit(612). The wavelength monitoring unit(615) extracts wavelength information from a digital frame signal transmitted from an ONT, and monitors whether the wavelength information is ONT optical source assignment wavelength information or not. If the wavelength information is not matched with the optical source assignment information of the ONT, the automatic recognition unit(614) adds wavelength control information to the digital frame signal and transmits the added information to the ONT. If the wavelength information is matched with the optical source assignment information of the ONT, the transmission unit(611) encodes and transmits the data transmitted from the ONT to a MAC layer. The receiving unit(612) decodes and receives data of the MAC layer.

The state detection circuit part(303), installed in the OLT, detects the fault state of an optical signal outputted from a fixed transceiver. The tunable transceivers(202), installed in the OLT, output a plurality of respectively different wavelength optical signals. The unable transceivers(202) extract a wavelength optical signal outputted from a fixed transceiver, which has generated a fault detected by the state detection circuit part(303), and recover the fault. The number(M) of tunable transceivers is smaller than the number(N) of fixed transceivers in the OLT.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a WDM/SCM-PON and a media access control method for asymmetric packet communication in the same. In the WDM/SCM-PON, each SCM channel is classified and used as a link by adopting an SCM technique of subdividing a wavelength band of up/downstream data links between an OLT and ONTs into frequency bands, and the ONTs are formed so that a certain SCM channel is independently distributed not fixedly assigned. Accordingly, an inventory problem, which can be generated in WDM/SCM, is prevented before happens, asymmetric dynamic band allocation is performed, and asymmetric service of up/downstream transmission is supported. As a result, a band required for next generation service is dynamically provided, optical interference effect is minimized, and Ethernet compatibility is provided so that Ethernet service suitable for providing IP service can be accommodated.
