Prioritized transmission of variable bit rate MPEG video

Abstract
The traffic characteristics of an MPEG coder which generates a high-priority and a low-priority bit stream are studied. The prioritization scheme for the coder assigns components of the data stream to each priority level based on the value of a parameter B . Statistics of both high- and low-priority cells for a pure intraframe and a mixed interframe/intraframe coder are presented. In particular, the probability mass functions on a cells per slice basis of the high-priority and low-priority component for various values of B are shown. Statistics gathered from this type of prioritization scheme can be applied in several ways for network design and operation
