Abstract

Remote medical Support System (RMSS) means a remote support system among 4 remote telemedicine services of U-Health. A currently available service in Korea is the one checking and maintaining patient´s status and supporting in emergency through video communication between an ambulance transferring patients and hospital under HSDPA and WiBro environment with coding of MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. With that, this paper improves the stability of the current RMSS service of ambulance confirms the improvement compared to the old system by generating a system communicating by RTP/RTCP under coding process through H.264/AVC after converting RGB video to YUV in order to improve network efficiency.
