Abstract:

In this paper, we propose a novel scheme using computing complexity layered scalable video coding (CCLSVC) to optimize the user experience of broadcasting video in the computing capability limited handheld terminals. To address the heterogeneity of computing capability among different handheld devices, we employ hierarchal B reference structure of SVC to divide the frames into multiple computing complexity layers (CC Layers) in server side. The handheld clients simply choose to decode the frames in their corresponding layers in terms of their computation capability to maximize the video PSNR. We have proved that the optimal CC Layers division problem is a precedence constrained scheduling problem, which is an NP-complete problem. And we further propose our fast greedy method to approximately get optimized broadcasting video playback PSNR. The simulation shows that our method is superior to temporal SVC and random frame discarding method.
