Abstract
In this paper we propose and compare different distributed video coding (DVC) schemes based on the use of the wavelet transform, which naturally allows for spatial and other forms of scalability. In particular, we propose a hybrid encoder which utilizes channel codes, and evaluate its performance in the absence of a feedback channel. The proposed scheme uses statistical models for the estimation of the required bitrate at the encoder. We also propose a scheme that is based on a modulo reduction procedure and does not use channel codes at the receiver/transmitter. These schemes are compared with more conventional coders that do not or only partially exploit the distributed coding paradigm. Experimental results show that the considered schemes have good performance when compared with similar asymmetric video compression schemes, and that DVC can be an interesting option in appropriate scenarios.
