Wireless video refers to transporting video signals over mobile wireless links.
Introduction
The rapid growth of mobile wireless access devices, together with the success of wireless networking technologies, has brought a new era of video communications: transporting video signals over mobile wireless links. Transport of video content over mobile wireless channels is very challenging because the mobile wireless channels are usually severely impaired due to multi-path fading, shadowing, inter-symbol interferences, and noise disturbances. Traditionally, vision has been the dominant medium through which people receive information. Visual information, coupled with intelligent vision processing, provides a rich set of important information for situational awareness and event understanding [1]. Incorporating the video capture, processing, and transmission capabilities into networked mobile devices will enable us to gather real-time visual information about the target events at...
