Abstract

IoT devices are enabled to capture and upload videos with increasing bitrates. Massive IIoT is eager for effective video processing techniques to satisfy the requirements of real-time video services. With the emergence of 5G-unlicensed (5G-U), ultra-low latency video applications become possible. However, existing encoding standards for video services in Web 2.0, such as H.265, are not naturally designed for IIoT video streaming, leading to bandwidth pressure where 5G-U coexists with various other wireless signals. To tackle this problem and to support low-latency video utilization by IIoT video sources, we propose an Adaptive Compression-Reconstruction framework named ACORN, which is based on compressed sensing and recent advances in deep learning. At end nodes, we compress multiple sequential video frames into a single frame to reduce video volume. We design a QoE-aware parameter selection mechanism to deal with volatile network environments during compression. With learnable gated convolution layers and channel-wise soft-thresholding operators, ACORN also builds a real-time reconstruction module. Experimental results reveal that video analytics can be conducted on compressed frames. The reconstruction algorithm in ACORN is with 1-4 ~dB improvements. Moreover, both the encoding time cost and the encoded video volume are reduced by more than 4 × under the ACORN framework.
