Abstract:
The method (1100) and device (200, 900, 1400) of the present invention provides a mechanism to apply smoothing delay to video packets transmitted through a packet-switched network. Since the method and device using this invention perform a smoothing delay at video frame level, instead of packet level, smoothing delay can be minimized and at the same time the video decoder overflow can still be prevented. The present invention reduces system complexity by eliminating the need to recover the time stamp for each packet. Furthermore, the present invention does not require the prior knowledge of the worst network delay Δ. Thus, the present invention provides for a minimized jitter smoothing delay with concurrent minimized implementation complexity.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a signal loss recovery device (400) and method for digitally encoded bitstreams produced by predictive encoders, for realtime and/or interactive communications. The signal loss recovery device (400) recovers the lost or damaged information by sending a retransmission request for the lost information from transmission receiver (302). Compared to the previously known retransmission technique, this device does not introduce extra buffer delay. The elimination of this buffer delay is realized by continuously processing the received data while waiting for the arrival of the retransmission. The information is reinserted into the error corrupted signal to restore the output signal to its original form without signal loss.
