The design and realization of 3G-based vehicular video surveillance system

The third generation mobile communication system technology has been widely used in various aspects of our daily life. Making use of the 3G networks to remote monitor and managing vehicle video can well adapt to the mobility characteristics of the vehicle network. Moreover, this technology has obvious advantages compared with traditional technologies. We design and implement a vehicular network video surveillance communication system, which consists of two major sub-systems, the streaming media server (SMS) and the central management system (CMS). This system has achieved the characteristics of full functionality and high operating efficiency. In particular, this system has a streaming media cache control algorithms and data distribution strategy to overcome delay and jitter in the video processing. Finally, the test results show that this system meets the application requirements and can provide good performance in network connection, cache control, remote real-time video transmission, and display aspects. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2012.
