Abstract

This chapter provides an introduction to mobile video communications. In recent years, two distinct technologies have experienced massive growth and commercial success: multimedia and mobile communications. Motivated by the vision of being able to communicate from anywhere at any time with any type of information, a natural convergence of mobile and multimedia is under way. This new area is called mobile multimedia communications. Mobile multimedia communications is expected to achieve unprecedented growth and worldwide success. The definition of the term “multimedia” has always been a source of great debate and confusion. In this book, the term refers to the presentation of information through multiple forms of media, such as textual media, numerical media, audio media, visual media, and any other form of information representation.
