Abstract:With the video technology, network technology and the rapid development of digital technology, multimedia mixed application of digitization and networking. Embedded network and multimedia technology with the combination of both advantages became apparent. Modern daily life work, video monitoring system has become to ensure the safety of life, work, study, maintain the normal order of important component. Traditional video monitoring system USES the original video coding and network transmission technology, high noise video data, data encapsulation package resources, network interactive resource consumption and high delay problems. For many groups large area monitoring system set up. According to the cause of the problem, put forward under the multimedia environment, embedded network video monitoring system research. By means of video coding, network coding units and storage compression algorithm to overhaul the traditional video monitoring system as a whole. Through the simulation experiments show that under the multimedia environment of embedded network video monitoring system, with high video resolution, video source encapsulation small resources and advantages of the network transmission speed, small delay.
