Abstract

Variable-bit-rate (VBR) compressed video can exhibit significant multiple-time-scale bit rate variability. Smoothing techniques remove the periodic fluctuations generated by the codification modes. However, global efficiency concerning network resource allocation remains low due to scene-time-scale variability. RCBR techniques provide suitable means to achieving higher efficiency. This paper presents a new two-level renegotiated constant bit rate (RCBR) technique for stored video. This technique uses client buffer space to assure continuity-time constraint and to reduce the number of periods requiring higher bandwidth. The simulated results from 4 relevant sequences are presented.
