Abstract

This paper presents a chaotic interleaving approach for efficient video transmission with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with equalization over fading channels. The SPIHT compressed video is converted to luminance and chrominance approach and converted to binary data. The binary data is interleaved with the proposed approach prior to the modulation step. The chaotic Baker map is used in the proposed interleaving approach. In addition to reducing the channel effects on the transmitted data, the proposed chaotic interleaving approach adds a degree of encryption to the transmitted data. The performance of the proposed approach is tested by the transmission of SPIHT compressed video frames over Rayleigh fading channels with chaotic interleaving. Experimental results show that video frames are received with higher peak signal-to-noise ratios (PSNRs) if chaotic interleaving is applied. We also propose an efficient technique to reduce the effects of both multiple access interference (MAI) and intersymbol interference (ISI) in wireless OFDM systems. A hybrid scheme comprising randomization of SPIHT video frames at the transmitter and a regularized equalizer at the receiver unit is suggested and studied. Then, the regularized equalizer is used to reduce the effect of ISI and provide a better estimate of the data. The performance of the proposed scheme is studied and compared with traditional schemes. Our simulation results show a noticeable performance improvement by using the proposed scheme.

Abstract

Video is compressed to move the redundancies for efficient communication. In this paper, we use a steganography method for verification of the video content at the receiver side. The main idea of the proposed steganography method is based on the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). It is based on creating a signature for each block of the DCT of the compressed video sequence to be embedded in another block. This is attributed to the fact that most DCT coefficients of the compressed video sequence are either zero or close to zero. Simulation results reveal the robustness of the suggested steganography method.

Abstract

The videois compressed to move the redundancies for reducing the number of bits whichneed to show the video for reducing the size of video to reduce the band width. We embed the hiding data in redundancies of the video frame withoutvisibility manner using Steganography technique. In our research we focus in increasing the improvement of compressed video frame through using steganography. In our research we use two mixed techniques to compress the video, the first is digital steganography and the second is data compression. Hence, the suggested scheme is mixed the algorithm ofthe steganography algorithm with the DCT compressionvideo frame.The suggested scheme in our study compression of data is made in two steps. In the first step,redundant data isminimized by compaction of energy using video. In the second step, with using steganography bit blocks isembedded in its blocks which call subsequent of the same video frame. Theadvantage of thebits which it is embedded isdecrease the size of the file and increase thesize of the file of the compressed video frame, but also decrease the file size further more. Theresults of simulation results explainthat,the suggestedschemehave more potential in coding of the frame of the video.
