Abstract

In the wireless communication systems, transmission errors degrade the reconstructed image quality severely. Error concealment in video communication is becoming increasingly important because transmission errors can cause single or multiple loss of macroblocks in video delivery over unreliable channels such as wireless networks and internet. Among various techniques which can reduce the degradation of video quality, the error concealment techniques yield good performance without overheads and the modification of the encoder. In this paper, lost image blocks can be concealed with the OBMC(Overlapped Block Motion Compensation) after new motion vectors of the lost image blocks are allocated by median values using the adaptive selection with motion vectors of adjacent blocks. We know our algorithm is more effective in case of continuous GOB loss. The results show a significant improvement over the zero motion error concealment and other temporal concealment methods such as Motion Vector Rational Interpolation or Median OBMC by 3 dB gain in PSNR.
