Fine-granulated FEC code for IPTV I-frames over wireless DVB-T channels

Powerful Forward Error Correction (FEC) codes are usually used over digital video broadcast (DVB) networks. IPTV uses a base video layer and enhancement layer. In IPTV, the Intra-frame (I-frame) has the highest dependency where corruption of an I-frame will result in error propagation through all th...
