Optimization and Evaluation of Emerging Codecs

Video streaming is growing exponentially. High-resolution videos require high bandwidth to transport the videos over the network. There is a great demand for compression technologies to compress video and maintain quality. Video codecs are used to encode and decode video streams. These codecs have been developed by MPEG, Google, Microsoft, and Apple Inc. The goal of this research is to develop a technology that will realize contribution transmission through connecting the latest methods generation of single and multi-way video encoding with the new protocols that will provide transmission reliability and keep low latency. A literature review will be carried out. The literature covers different video codecs and transmission techniques and the methods used to evaluate the quality of those techniques and codecs. Based on the literature review, the theoretical framework will be formed, and a video encoding method prototype will be developed. The developed method will be for one-way and multi-way software that will automatically optimize the settings of the video codec to set its operating conditions at optimal. The new transmission software will use newer codecs, such as H265/HEVC, VP9, and AV1, MPEG5, which will allow additional reduction of the bit stream and deliver secure, reliable, and quality video with low latency.
