Abstract
A method of transmitting a video frame over a plurality of communication channels involves selecting a number of communication channels available between the transmitting and the receiving devices; partitioning spatially correlated pixels of the video frame into a number of different partitions equal to the number of selected communication channels; and transmitting the different partitions, where each partition is transmitted on a distinct communication channel among the selected communication channels.Such a method is suitable for use in a communication system, especially a wireless communication system, in which data of a channel can be lost or corrupted. The method can maximize diversity in the transport of the video frame pixels and improve robustness.
