Abstract: For video streaming over lossy channels, intra refresh can mitigate the error-propagation effect caused by packet losses. Besides some intra-mode macroblocks (MBs) generated by the “Lagrangian rate-distortion” or “Sum of absolute difference” mode decision, the encoder or transcoder possibly needs to increase some “forced” intra-mode MBs for robust video streaming. Based on the error-propagation analysis in a group of pictures (GOP), we propose an unequal Forced-Intra-Refresh (FIR) scheme to improve packet loss resilience of video streaming. According to a GOP-level error-propagation model, the proposed unequal FIR scheme can optimally increase the unequal number of forced intra-mode MBs for different frames in a GOP. Simulation results showed that the proposed scheme can effectively enhance the robustness of video streaming under different channel conditions, and achieve about 0.1~0.9 dB gains over the average FIR scheme in H.264/AVC tools.
