Yang Chunling, Lin Yuguang, Zhang Xing-shao. Research on semi-feedback and unidirectional distributed video coding[J]. Journal of Image and Graphics, 2010, 15(11): 1589. DOI: 10.11834/jig.20101117.
Distributed video coding(DVC) based on ideal ARQ is unrealistic. And little attention has been paid to the correlation between side information and distributed frames which has large influence on the compression performance. In this paper,through statistical analysis of the similarity between side information and distributed frames,a PSNR-based semi-feedback DVC is proposed. In order to fulfill the applications without using feedback channels
a PSNR-based unidirectional DVC is proposed too. Simulation results demonstrate that,the performances of semi-feedback and unidirectional DVC based on PSNR can significantly reduce decoding complexity,and are practical as well as flexible to control rates,while almost maintaining the same encoding complexity. But the decoded video quality is a little inferior to the ideal ARQ DVC.
