Summary :

The rapid growth of multimedia applications has increased interest in the compression of video data. This paper presents a new method for improving the compression ratio of video data, which can be easily used in a multilayer environment for error resilience applications as well. Data of four luminance blocks in a macroblock are processed and arranged in such a way that important macroblock data is compressed in one block(A), while the rest of the three remaining data blocks(H,V,D) are given difference values in the horizontal, vertical and diagonal directions. This results in a reduced bitstream size because of the low-valued data present in the three blocks(H,V,D), giving better compression at low bitrates. In an error resilient environment, the important data block in a macroblock is transmitted in a secure channel while the remaining three blocks with difference data are sent via a lossy channel. If error occurs in the lossy channel, picture can still be reconstructed with reasonably good quality using only the block data that is transmitted in the secure channel.
