Abstract

In multimedia applications the storage and bandwidth are crucial resources. The requirement for bandwidth is more critical than storage in the sense that when bandwidth is very high, it can compensate for storage requirement to a large extent, whereas high storage may not compensate for bandwidth, especially, in real time multimedia applications. A new strategy for bandwidth channelization for videos has been proposed that has been named variable bandwidth channelization. The results for buffer requirement in variable bandwidth channelization have been compared with those of constant bandwidth channelization. It was found that the requirement of buffer storage for variable bandwidth channelization is significantly less compared to that for constant bandwidth channelization.
