Abstract

With the advance of multimedia systems and wireless mobile com- munications, there has been a growing need to support multimedia services (such as mobile teleconferencing, mobile TV, telemedicine, and distance learning) using mobile multimedia technologies. Despite the research done in the field of mobile multimedia, delivery of real-time interactive video over noisy wireless channels is still a challenge for researchers. This paper presents a method for prioritising data partitioned MPEG-4 video in a way suitable for transmission over a mobile network. The effectiveness of the technique is demonstrated by examining its performance when the transport of the prioritized video streams can be accomplished using packet switching technology over the enhanced general packet radio service access network infrastructure.
