Abstract:

This paper discusses the utilization of progressive video codecs
in digital video broadcasting. The benefit is two-fold. Progressive codec would enable the possibility to receive a single broadcast stream with variety of screen sizes ranging from
HDTV televisions to cellular phone screens in mobile TV application. Another benefit is the possibility for trade-off between video quality and power saving in the receiver. This is
especially important in battery powered hand-held receivers.
<p>
Here, the mobile broadcast standard DVB-H along with
JPEG2000 for video encoding is used to show how to make
it possible to allow receiver to control the level of power consumption. Actually, any other scalable codec could be used
instead of JPEG2000, which was chosen just to illustrate this
possibility. In this paper, JPEG2000 is also compared with
H.264/AVC and MPEG-2 in the power consumption and shows
quite favorable results. In future work, authors will analyze the
scalability of the proposed system in detail.
