NON-ENHANCING MEDIA REDUNDANCY CODING FOR MITIGATING TRANSMISSION IMPAIRMENTS
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- identifying a plurality of frames of interest from a primary stream of encoded frames;
selecting at least one of the frames of interest for inclusion in a separate redundant stream;
producing another encoded instance of the at least one selected encoded frame;
associating the another encoded instance of the at least one selected encoded frame in the separate redundant stream with the corresponding selected frame in the primary stream; and
providing the primary stream, the separate redundant stream, and a common clock reference to a decoder.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a method comprises identifying a plurality of frames of interest from a primary stream of encoded frames. The method further comprises selecting at least one of the frames of interest for inclusion in a separate redundant stream. The method further comprises producing another encoded instance of the at least one selected encoded frame. The method further comprises associating the another encoded instance of the at least one selected frame in the separate redundant stream with the corresponding selected encoded frame in the primary stream. The method further comprises providing the primary stream, the separate redundant stream, and a common clock reference to a decoder.

13. An apparatus comprising:
-
a redundant stream generator configured to process a primary stream of encoded frames to produce a redundant stream; a multiplexer configured to combine the primary stream and the redundant stream into a combined stream; and a network interface configured to transmit the combined stream to a decoder, the redundant stream generator further configured to; select from the primary stream of encoded frames at least one frame; include another encoded instance of the at least one selected encoded frame in a separate redundant stream; specify a common clock reference; and associate the another encoded instance of the at least one selected encoded frame in the separate redundant stream with the corresponding selected frame in the primary stream. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
