Current trends in wireless communications provide fast and location-independent access to multimedia services. Due to its high compression efficiency, H.264/AVC is expected to become the dominant underlying technology in the delivery of future wireless video applications. The error resilient mechanisms adopted by this standard alleviate the problem of spatio-temporal propagation of visual artifacts caused by transmission errors by dropping and concealing all macroblocks (MBs) contained within corrupted segments, including uncorrupted MBs. Concealing these uncorrupted MBs generally causes a reduction in quality of the reconstructed video sequence.
