Transmission of variable bit rate video over an Orwell ring
thesis
posted on 2018-03-27, 10:11 authored by Hin-Soon ChinAsynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) is fast emerging as the preferred information
transfer technique for future Broadband Integrated Services Digital Networks (BISON),
offering the advantages of both the simplicity of time division circuit switched techniques
and the flexibility of packet switched techniques. ATM networks with their inherent rate
flexibility offer new opportunities for the efficient transmission of real time Variable Bit
Rate (VBR) services over such networks. Since most services are VBR in nature when
efficiently coded, this could in turn lead to a more efficient utilisation of network resources
through statistical multiplexing. Video communication is typical of such a service and could
benefit significantly if supported with VBR video over ATM networks. [Continues.]
