Abstract
The 1990s will see a large increase in the use of video for many purposes, made possible through the use of new optical storage and transmission methods, as well as radio and satellite communication. HDTV, new broadcast services and 64 kbit/s ISDN video are all at an advanced stage of development. Digital methods of transmission and storage feature prominently in future scenarios of video usage. To avoid long delays in transmission, packet video techniques for storage of high-quality material on optical discs are being considered. Coded video signals can be transmitted in packet form at variable bit rate. The author discusses the principles of packet video. Packet loss, queueing delay and layered coding are discussed. The future developments are also discussed
