Abstract

See full text

For transmitting video data over a powerline communications transmission channel, a first communication device: obtains video data in the form of a succession of uncompressed images; determines the capacity of the transmission channel; performs a wavelet-decomposition of each uncompressed image, thereby obtaining data having different resolutions; compresses each wavelet-decomposed image, on the basis of the determined capacity of the powerline communications transmission channel; and performs transmission in pulse form with spreading of each compressed image to a second communication device, to introduce data redundancy, the rate of which, for each data item of said compressed image, is defined on the basis of the resolution of said video data item, the redundancy of the data having the lowest resolution being higher than the one of the data having any other resolution. The first communication device also transmits speed maps enabling the second communication device to thereby apply an image enhancement operation.
