This text introduces fundamental principles and technologies used in the design and analysis of video transport systems for many video applications, such as MPEG and Motion JPEG video, in digital networks. It covers several important topics including video buffering, packet scheduling, multiplexing and synchronization. The book takes a structured approach to video transporting technology, starting with the overview of video transporting and video compression techniques and working gradually towards issues of video transporting systems. Many applications are described including the video transporting techniques used in broadband communication systems, transporting schemes for digital head-end multiplexing and re-multiplexing systems, video transcoding systems and also the rate-control schemes for video transmission over networks.
