Abstract

The techniques of progressive image transmission (PIT) divide image delivery into several phases. PIT's main objective is to efficiently and effectively provide an approximate reconstruction of the original image in each phase. Therefore, this study proposes the blocked wavelet progressive image transmission (BWPIT) method based on the wavelet transformation and the spatial similarity of pixels, to reduce the bit-rate and increase the image quality in an early phase of PIT. Experimental results show that the transmission bit-rate and the image quality of BWPIT are significantly better than those of bit-plane method (BPM), improved bit-plane method (IBPM), and wavelet-based progressive image transmission (WbPIT) method in each early phase.
