Since the publication of Wireless Video Communications five
years ago, the area of video compression and wireless transceivers
has evolved even further. This new edition addresses a range of
recent developments in these areas, giving cognizance to the
associated transmission aspects and issues of error resilience.
Video Compression and Communications has been updated and
condensed yet remains all-encompassing, giving a comprehensive
overview of the subject. Covering compression issues, coding delay,
implementational complexity and bitrate, the book also looks at the
historical perspective to video communication.
* New edition of successful and informative text, Wireless Video
Communications
* Substantial new material has been added on areas such as H.264,
MPEG4 coding and transceivers
* Clear presentation and broad scope make it essential for anyone
interested in wireless communications
* Systematically converts the lessons of Shannon’s information
theory into design principles applicable to practical wireless
systems.
This book is ideal for postgraduates and researchers in
communication systems but will also be a valuable reference to
undergraduates, development and systems engineers of video
compression applications as well as industrialists, managers and
visual communications practitioners.
