360-degree video becomes increasingly popular among users. In the current network bandwidth, serving high resolution 360 degree video to users is quite difficult. Most of the work has been devoted to the prediction of user viewports or…
360{\deg} video is attracting an increasing amount of attention in the context of Virtual Reality (VR). Owing to its very high-resolution requirements, existing professional streaming services for 360{\deg} video suffer from severe…
The recent rise of interest in Virtual Reality (VR) came with the availability of commodity commercial VR products, such as the Head Mounted Displays (HMD) created by Oculus and other vendors. One of the main applications of virtual reality…
A 360 virtual reality (VR) video, recording a scene of interest in every direction, provides VR users with immersive viewing experience. However, transmission of a 360 VR video which is of a much larger size than a traditional video to…
In this letter, we study optimal multicast of tiled 360 virtual reality (VR) video from one server (base station or access point) to multiple users. We consider random viewing directions and random channel conditions, and adopt time…
In this paper, we study the server-side rate adaptation problem for streaming tile-based adaptive 360-degree videos to multiple users who are competing for transmission resources at the network bottleneck. Specifically, we develop a…
The 360-degree video allows users to enjoy the whole scene by interactively switching viewports. However, the huge data volume of the 360-degree video limits its remote applications via network. To provide high quality of experience (QoE)…
While traditional multimedia applications such as games and videos are still popular, there has been a significant interest in the recent years towards new 3D media such as 3D immersion and Virtual Reality (VR) applications, especially 360…
The growing popularity of virtual and augmented reality communications and 360{\deg} video streaming is moving video communication systems into much more dynamic and resource-limited operating settings. The enormous data volume of 360{\deg}…
Given the significant industrial growth of demand for virtual reality (VR), 360{\deg} video streaming is one of the most important VR applications that require cost-optimal solutions to achieve widespread proliferation of VR technology.…
360{\deg} videos a.k.a. spherical videos are getting popular among users nevertheless, omnidirectional view of these videos demands high bandwidth and processing power at the end devices. Recently proposed viewport aware streaming…
In the 360-degree immersive video, a user only views a part of the entire raw video frame based on her viewing direction. However, today's 360-degree video players always fetch the entire panoramic view regardless of users' head movement,…
We propose and analyze centralized and distributed algorithms for device-to-device video scheduling and streaming. The proposed algorithms address jointly the problems of device-to-device link scheduling and video quality adaptation in…
In this paper, we study the optimal wireless streaming of a multi-quality tiled 360 virtual reality (VR) video from a multi-antenna server to multiple single-antenna users in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-orthogonal frequency…
Proactive tile-based video streaming can avoid motion-to-photon latency of wireless virtual reality (VR) by computing and delivering the predicted tiles to be requested before playback. All existing works either focus on designing…
We demonstrate an adaptive bandwidth-efficient 360 VR video streaming system based on MPEG-DASH SRD. We extend MPEG-DASH SRD to the 3D space of 360 VR videos, and showcase a dynamic view-aware adaptation technique to tackle the high…
Virtual reality (VR) is making waves around the world recently. However, traditional video streaming is not suitable for VR video because of the huge size and view switch requirements of VR videos. Since the view of each user is limited, it…
Volumetric media, popularly known as holograms, need to be delivered to users using both on-demand and live streaming, for new augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) experiences. As in video streaming, hologram streaming must…
In this paper, we investigate wireless streaming of multi-quality tiled 360 virtual reality (VR) videos from a multi-antenna server to multiple single-antenna users in a multi-carrier system. To capture the impact of field-of-view (FoV)…
In this paper, we would like to investigate optimal wireless streaming of a multi-quality tiled 360 virtual reality (VR) video from a server to multiple users. To this end, we propose to maximally exploit potential multicast opportunities…
