title = "Statistical multiplexing of VBR MPEG compressed video on ATM networks",
abstract = "This paper introduces a variable bit-rate (VBR) MPEG video compression encoder, and evaluates the performance of a statistically multiplexed ATM network supporting a number of such VBR video sources. Bit-rate characteristics obtained from a detailed simulation are provided for a VBR MPEG encoder for CCIR601 video (operating in the 5-10 Mbps regime) appropriate for medium quality multimedia or broadcasting applications. The results presented include bit-rate traces and signal-to-noise ratio data for typical test sequences, along with summary statistics such as the marginal distribution of frame rate. This characterization of the VBR MPEG encoder is followed by summary data from a study of statistical multiplexing on an ATM network. Simulation results for an ATM statistical multiplexer with N ≫ 1 VBR MPEG sources are presented in terms of key performance measures such as cell loss rate and delay vs. throughput. The results confirm that good ATM channel efficiencies (Approximately 80-90%) can be obtained at reasonable cell loss rate and delay levels in the statistical multiplexing scenario under consideration.",
