Bit-rate Scalable Video Coder Using a $2{\times}2{\times}2$ DCT for Progressive Transmission

In this paper, we propose a progressive transmission of a video using a 2$\times$2$\times$2 DCT First of all, the video data is transformed into multiresolution represented video data using a 2$\times$2$\times$2 DCT. Then. it is represented by a 3-D EZT(Embedded Zero Tree) coding fur the progressive transmission with a bit-rate scalability. The proposed progressive transmission algorithm needs much less computations and buffer memories than the higher-order convolution based wavelet filter. Also, since the 2$\times$2$\times$2 DCT requires independent local computations, parallel processing can be applied.
