Practical Wyner-Ziv Switching Scheme for Multiple Bit-Rate Video Streaming

Overview This paper proposes a novel bit-stream switching scheme for the Multiple Bit-Rate (MBR) video streaming, in which a Wyner-Ziv coded frame is used to overcome the mismatch between the MBR streams when the switching occurs. With the proposed technique, the MBR streams can be independently encoded without losing any coding efficiency. Similar to distributed video coding, the proposed Wyner-Ziv switching scheme also faces the challenge of rate allocation at the server side. To solve this problem, the paper proposes a new correlation model based on the analysis on the reconstructed frames from the streams with different bit rates.
