Error Robustness Evaluation of H.264/MPEG-4 AVC.
In Proceedings Visual Communications and Image Processing (VCIP), San Jose (CA, USA), January 2004

Abstract
The robustness of the recently ratified video compression standard H.264/MPEG-4 AVC against channel errors is evaluated with the focus on rate distortion matters. After a brief introduction of the standard and an explanation of its error-resistant features, it is investigated how the error resilience tools of H.264 can be deployed best for packet-wise transmission as in ATM, H.323, and IP-based services. Further, the performances of two error concealment strategies for use in an H.264-conform decoder are compared to each other.

Keywords
Error robustness, resilience, concealment, H.264, MPEG-4 AVC, packet loss.
