The emergence of third generation mobile system (3G) makes video transmission in wireless environment possible, and the latest 3GPP/3GPP2 standards require 3G terminals support H.264/AVC. Due to high packet loss rate in wireless environment, error resilience for 3G terminals is necessary. Moreover, because of the hardware restrictions, 3G mobile terminals support only part of H.264/AVC error resilience tool. This paper analyzes various error resilience tools and their functions, and presents 2 error resilience strategies for 3G mobile streaming video services and mobile conversational services. Performances of the proposed error resilience strategies were tested using off-line common test conditions. Experiments showed that the proposed error resilience strategies can yield reasonably satisfactory results.

Adaptive audio watermarking based on SNR in localized regions
WU Guo-min, ZHUANG Yue-ting, WU Fei, PAN Yun-he
Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE A (Applied Physics & Engineering), 2005, 6(Supplement 1): 53-57.
https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02887216
In this paper, a novel localized audio watermarking scheme based on signal to noise ratio (SNR) to determine a scaling parameter a is proposed. The basic idea is to embed watermark in selected high inflexion regions, and the intensity of embedded watermarks are modified by adaptively adjusting a. As these high inflexion local regions usually correspond to music edges like sound of percussion instruments, explosion or transition of mixed music, which represent the music rhythm or tempo and are very important to human auditory perception, the embedded watermark is especially expected to escape the distortions caused by time domain synchronization attacks. Taking advantage of localization and SNR, the method shows strong robustness against common problems in audio signal processing, random cropping, time scale modification, etc.

A framework to create video-transition effects
BU Jia-jun, ZHAO Chuan-yu, CHEN Chun
Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE A (Applied Physics & Engineering), 2005, 6(Supplement 1): 58-65.
https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02887217
The paper presents a framework for developing a variety of video transition effects. The framework is designed to deal with the problem of inefficiency for programmers to generate more and more diversified video transition, which is caused by excessive coupling between the sub-modules of the system. So the framework is designed to be modular, flexible and extensible. Based on the analysis of common features of different effects, the implementation of video transition effect is divided into 4 sub-modules, each of which can be designed and developed independently. Furthermore, these sub-modules can be easily substituted, modified and reused. We present a formal description of our framework, and give typical study cases to show the extensive utility of the framework.

CCPA: Component-Based Communication Protocol Architecture for embedded systems
DAI Hong-jun, CHEN Tian-zhou, CHEN Chun
Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE A (Applied Physics & Engineering), 2005, 6(Supplement 1): 79-86.
https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02887221
For increased and various communication requirements of modern applications on embedded systems, general purpose protocol stacks and protocol models are not efficient because they are fixed to execute in the static mode. We present the Component-Based Communication Protocol Architecture (CCPA) to make communication dynamic and configurable. It can develop, test and store the customized components for flexible reuse. The protocols are implemented by component assembly and support by configurable environments. This leads to smaller memory, more flexibility, more reconfiguration ability, better concurrency, and multiple data channel support.

Line clipping against polygonal window algorithm based on the multiple virtual boxes rejecting
WANG Jin, LU Guo-dong, PENG Qun-sheng, WU Xuan-hui
Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE A (Applied Physics & Engineering), 2005, 6(Supplement 1): 100-107.
https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02887224
This paper presents a new algorithm for line clipping against a polygonal window by exploiting the local relationship between each line segment and the polygon. Firstly, a minimal enclosing box (MEB) of the polygon is adopted to reject the invisible line segments located outside the MEB. Secondly, a 45° rotated box is used to encode the endpoint of the line segment, and then reject a portion of the invisible segments crossing polygon corners. Finally, instead of encoding the endpoints of all line segments with respect to the polygonal window, each vertex of the polygon is encoded, taking the line segment to be clipped as reference. For efficient encoding of the polygon vertices, a new concept, termed with slope adaptive virtual box, is introduced regarding each line segment. Such a box can not only conveniently reject all totally invisible lines lying outside the MEB conveniently, but also precisely identify the edges of the polygon with which the line segment potentially intersects. With the summation of the vertex codes, it can be verified whether the line segment is separated from or potentially intersects the polygon window. Based on the product of the codes of adjacent vertices, singular cases of intersection can be solved accurately. Experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and stability of the new algorithm.

A class of quasi Bézier curves based on hyperbolic polynomials
SHEN Wan-qiang, WANG Guo-zhao
Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE A (Applied Physics & Engineering), 2005, 6(Supplement 1): 116-123.
https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02887226
This paper presents a basis for the space of hyperbolic polynomials Γm=span{1, sht, cht, sh2t, ch2t, …, shmt, chmt} on the interval [0,α] from an extended Tchebyshev system, which is analogous to the Bernstein basis for the space of polynomial used as a kind of well-known tool for free-form curves and surfaces in Computer Aided Geometry Design. Then from this basis, we construct quasi Bézier curves and discuss some of their properties. At last, we give an example and extend the range of the parameter variable t to arbitrary close interval [r, s] (r<s).

LIU Yong, SONG Chen-lu, WENG Wen-jian, DU Pi-yi, HAN Gao-rong
Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE A (Applied Physics & Engineering), 2005, 6(Supplement 1): 155-157.
https://doi.org/10.1007/BF02887231
We present a Monte Carlo (MC) method to simulate the scattering for medium within randomly distributed particles, discuss the convergence of this method by varying the size parameter ka, volume parameter η and calculation parameter Ni, then compare this method with the classical iteration method with the same parameters. The calculation results showed that this method has good convergence and accords with the iteration method while consuming less CPU time. At the end of this paper, this method is used to discuss the visual light scatter in the c-Si/α-Si films.
