Abstract

This paper presents an overview of the MPEG++ robust compression and transport algorithm used in ADTV (Advanced Digital Television), a simulcast digital HDTV system recently proposed by the Thomson/Phittps/NBC/Sarnoff/CLI Advanced Television Research Consortium. MPEG++ achieves robust delivery of compressed video through the addition of media-specific data prioritization and transport layers to a standard MPEG bit-stream. A description of MPEG++ is presented, with particular emphasis on video-specific transport features that have been added to mitigate the impact of channel errors. Simulations results using an MPEG++ software model are briefly discussed.
