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.
