Video and multimedia transmissions over cellular networks: analysis, modelling and optimization in live 3G mobile networks

Video and Multimedia Transmissions over Cellular Networks describes the stateof the art in the transmission of multimedia over cellular networks, evaluates the performance of the running system based on the measurements and monitoring of live networks, and finally presents concepts and methods for improving of the quality in such systems. The book is divided into following six parts treating transmission of different media over cellular networks requiring certain quality: Part I: Contributions to the transmission of multimedia over cellular networks and introduction in the cellular networks on the example of UMTS. Part II: Characteristics of the link layer errors in the UMTS Terrestrial radio Access Network (UTRAN), general behavior of the UMTS dedicated radio link indifferent mobility scenarios. Part III: Video encoding and decoding (including newest H.264/AVC video codec. Part IV: Mechanisms for transmission of multimedia over cellular networks (including cross layer information exchange). PartV: Methods for monitoring quality in cellular networks. Part VI: Analysis andModeling of the traffic evolution in the cellular mobile networks
