Digital video broadcasts can be redistributed over a local area network using the packet based HIPERLAN (High Performance Radio Local Area Network) protocol. An example of the application of this technology is wireless communication within the home environment. This paper addresses the problem of transmitting MPEG-2 video over HIPERLAN and describes error resilient video transcoding as a means of handling channel errors. The implementation of two transcoding techniques on both PC and DSP platforms are discussed.
