1. A method for multimedia data transmission, comprising:
- pooling, by a computer, at least first and second multimedia data streams together in a single channel, wherein each stream defines a respective sequence of frames and each frame includes at least a base layer and at least one enhancement layer;
dynamically establishing, by the computer, first and second bit rates respectively associated with the first and second streams; and
transmitting, by a transmitter, the at least first and second streams on the channel.

Abstract
A system and method for multimedia data transmission including pooling, by a computer, at least first and second multimedia data streams together in a single channel, wherein each stream defines a respective sequence of frames and each frame includes at least a base layer and at least one enhancement layer; dynamically establishing, by the computer, first and second bit rates respectively associated with the first and second streams; and transmitting, by a transmitter, the at least first and second streams on the channel.

16. A system for transmitting at least first and second multimedia streams in a single channel, comprising:
-
means for establishing a first bit rate for the first stream during a first frame of the first stream; means for establishing a second bit rate for the first stream during a second frame of the first stream, the first and second bit rates being different from each other; means for pooling the at least first and second multimedia data streams together in a single channel; means for dynamically establishing first and second bit rates respectively associated with the first and second streams, wherein each stream defines a respective sequence of frames and each frame includes at least a base layer and at least one enhancement layer; and means for transmitting the at least first and second streams on the channel. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)
