Abstract

Video smoothing techniques can be used to facilitate more effective transmission and to preserve better video quality. In this paper we develop a semi-optimal video smoothing approach to manage the transmission rates of MPEG-4 and H.264 video over a QoS-based wireless LTE network. The proposed technique utilizes a smoothing buffer with pre-defined thresholds to smooth the transmission rates while assuming minimal information about the video to be transmitted. The results obtained showed a significant improvements in smoothing transmission rate variability. In addition, we show a model for the wireless LTE channel and use it as a feedback to manage smoothing and regulate and map the transmission rates based on the availability of network resources.
