Abstract

This paper investigates the IP (Internet Protocol) level error statistics and their effects on the application layer for audio and video services transmitted over a DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting-Handheld) system. IP is the interface between the transmission system and applications in most Mobile TV systems. Understanding IP level error behavior and its effects to compressed audiovisual material forms an important foundation for the mapping of transmission system performance to subjectively perceived audiovisual quality. In this paper, simulation results and IP packet error statistics for typical parameter sets for audiovisual services transmitted over conventional Mobile TV channels are presented.
