This　paper　presents　a　multiple　description　scalable　video　coding　scheme　based　on　overcomplete　motion　compensated　temporal　filtering,　named　MD-OMCTF,　for　robust　video　transmission　over　wireless　and　packet　loss　networks.　The　intrinsic　nature　of　the　structure　of　OMCTF　and　embedded　coding　with　modified　SPIHT　algorithm　enable　us　to　provide　fully　scalable　properties　for　the　proposed　scheme.　We　show　that　multiple　description　coding　is　very　effective　in　combating　with　channel　failures　in　both　Internet　and　wireless　video.　The　integration　of　MD　with　OMCTF　allows　us　to　achieve　both　loss　resilience　and　complete　scalability.　In　order　to　further　improve　error-resilience　to　channel　bit　error　for　this　scheme　and　reduce　error　propagation　in　error-prone　network,　we　apply　error　resilient　entropy　coding　(EREC)　to　the　multiple　bitstreams　to　gain　additional　error　resilience.　With　EREC,　multiple　bitstreams　are　reorganized　into　fixed-length　slots　so　that　synchronization　of　the　beginning　of　each　bitstream　can　be　automatically　obtained　at　the　receiver.　The　integration　of　scalable　coding　and　EREC　with　MDC　enables　the　coded　video　bitstream　to　be　adaptive　to　the　varying　channel　condition　and　to　be　resilient　to　both　transmission　losses　and　bit　errors.　We　also　develop　corresponding　error　concealment　scheme　to　recover　the　lost　or　erroneous　information　during　video　transmission.　Experimental　results　show　that　the　proposed　scheme　is　able　to　achieve　robust　video　transmission　over　both　wireless　and　packet　loss　networks.
