Paper Abstract
In this paper, a new data hiding-based error concealment algorithm
is proposed. The method allows to increase the video quality in
H.264/AVC wireless video transmission and Real-Time applications,
where the retransmission is unacceptable. Data hiding is used for
carrying to the decoder the values of 6 inner pixels of every
macro-block (MB) to be used to reconstruct lost MBs into Intra
frames through a bilinear interpolation process. The side
information concerning a slice is hidden into another slice of the
same frame, by properly modifying some quantized AC coefficients
of the Integer Transform of the 16 blocks 4x4 composing the MBs of
the host slice. At the decoder, the embedded information can be
recovered from the bit-stream and used in the bilinear interpolation to reconstruct the damaged slice. This method, although allowing the system to remain fully compliant with the standard, improves the performance with respect to the conventional error concealment methods adopted by H.264/AVC, from the point of view of visual quality and Y-PSNR. In particular, it is possible to improve the result of the interpolation process adopted by H.264/AVC, reducing the distance between interpolating pixels from 16 to 5.
