13 Wavelet Decomposition A3 Scaling Function A 2 A 1 D 3 D 2 Wavelet Function D 1 Figure: A typical wavelet decomposition Wavelet Decomposition Wavelet decomposition can be simply considered as passing the original signal to a high-pass filter (wavelet function) and a low-pass filter (scaling function). Wavelet function generates the detailed coefficients {D j } and scaling function generates the approximation coefficients {A j }, where j is the decomposition level. M. Dai and D. Loguinov Analysis and Modeling of MPEG-4 and H.264 Multi-Layer Video Traffic 13/35
14 Definition of Frame Sizes Definition Assuming that n is the GOP number, 1 φ I (n) is the I-frame size of the n-th GOP. 2 φ P i 3 φ B i (n) is the size of the i-th P-frame in the n-th GOP. (n) is the size of the i-th B-frame in the n-th GOP. For example, φ P 3 (10) represents the size of the third P-frame in the 10-th GOP. M. Dai and D.

25 Brief Description Layered Video Coding Generates one base layer (BL) and one or more enhancement layers(el) BL provides a low but guaranteed level of quality and EL provides quality improvement The input to an EL is the residual between the original image and the reconstructed image from the BL. Cross-Layer Correlation The enhancement layer has a strong dependency on the base layer, which is referred to as cross-layer correlation. M. Dai and D. Loguinov Analysis and Modeling of MPEG-4 and H.264 Multi-Layer Video Traffic 25/35
26 Brief Description (cont.) Definition Assuming that n 1 represents the GOP number in an enhancement layer, 1 ε I (n) is the I-frame size in this GOP. 2 ε P i 3 ε B i (n) is the size of the i-th P-frame in this GOP. (n) is the size of the i-th B-frame in this GOP. M. Dai and D. Loguinov Analysis and Modeling of MPEG-4 and H.264 Multi-Layer Video Traffic 26/35
27 Modeling Enhancement Layer Algorithm 1 We estimate I-frame sizes in wavelet domain 2 Estimate P and B-frame sizes using the cross-layer correlation: ε P i (n) = aφ P i (n) + w 1 (n), ε B i (n) = aφ B i (n) + w 2 (n), where a = r(0)σ ε /σ φ. Parameter r(0) is the lag-0 cross-correlation coefficient, σ ε and σ φ are the standard deviation of the EL and the corresponding BL. Processes { w 1 (n)}, { w 2 (n)} are independent of {φ P i (n)} and {φ B i (n)}. M. Dai and D. Loguinov Analysis and Modeling of MPEG-4 and H.264 Multi-Layer Video Traffic 27/35

34 This paper proposed a traffic model applicable to both single-layer and multi-layer VBR video traffic. The presented traffic modeling framework captures both LRD and SRD properties of video traffic. This framework accurately describes both inter-/intra-gop correlation and the cross-layer correlation.
