Abstract

Background: In the new era of wireless communications new challenges emerge including the provision of various services over the digital television network. In particular, such services become more important when referring to the tele-medical applications through terrestrial Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB).

Objective: One of the most significant aspects of video broadcasting is the quality and information content of data. Towards that end, several algorithms have been proposed for image processing in order to achieve the most convenient data compression.

Methods: Given that medical video and data are highly demanding in terms of resources it is imperative to find methods and algorithms that will facilitate medical data transmission with ordinary infrastructure such as DVB.

Results: In the present work we have utilized a quantization algorithm for data compression and we have attempted to transform video signal in such a way that would transmit information and data with a minimum loss in quality and succeed a near maximum End-user approval.

Conclusions: Such approaches are proven to be of great significance in emergency handling situations, which also include health care and emergency care applications.

Keywords: Quantization, healthcare telematics, digital video broadcasting, wireless communications, communications, internet.
