Abstract
This paper proposes a global optimization solution that combines different types of perceptual information to further improve transmission efficiency. First, a new rate-distortion (R-D) model is proposed to reflect the characteristics of 360degree video. Second, a globally optimized adaptive bitrate control algorithm is proposed using both the R-D models to adjust the bitrate for each tile in a segment. Finally, a new model parameter updating strategy that is robust to quality variations is proposed to further reduce prediction errors. Comparison results indicate that the proposed method can outperform state-of-the-art methods in terms of various quality of experience (QoE) objectives 1 .
