Optimized nested protection for video Region of Interest with Raptor codes
Due to the best effort feature of many existing transmission channels, video streams often suffer from inevitable transmission errors. In this paper, we propose a scheme of robust video transmission based on the state-of-the-art Raptor codes, whose applications are in full swing now. And considering Region of Interest (ROI) often draws much attention in images, the scheme adopts a nested protection framework to show partialities to ROI areas for better protection. Different from many existing Raptor codes based UEP methods, our scheme is developed based on the easy-to-use standardized Raptor codes. Experimental results show that significant robustness can be obtained for the video streams, especially for the ROI areas.
