VIDEO CODEC IMPORTANCE INDICATION AND RADIO ACCESS NETWORK AWARENESS CONFIGURATION
Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for video codec importance indication and RAN awareness configuration. An apparatus includes a processor that detects a plurality of video coded network abstraction layer (“NAL”) units of a video coded stream, extracts semantic information associated with the plurality of the NAL units, combines the extracted semantic information associated with the plurality of NAL units to form a plurality of feature sets that is correspondingly synchronized with the plurality of NAL units that enclose the extracted semantic information, determines an information-to-importance value for each of the plurality of NAL units based on the plurality of feature sets without performing video decoding of the video coded stream, and indicates the determined information-to-importance value for each of the plurality of NAL units of the determined video codec specification to a video coded traffic-aware transceiver for scheduling video traffic based on the indicated information-to-importance value.
1 . A network device apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
a processor that:
detects a plurality of video coded network abstraction layer (“NAL”) units of a video coded stream according to defined syntax elements of a determined video codec specification;
extracts semantic information associated with the plurality of the NAL units according to a syntax elements and semantic knowledge base defined within the determined video codec specification;
combines the extracted semantic information associated with the plurality of NAL units to form a plurality of feature sets that is correspondingly synchronized with the plurality of NAL units that enclose the extracted semantic information;
determines an information-to-importance value for each of the plurality of NAL units based on the plurality of feature sets without performing video decoding of the video coded stream; and
indicates the determined information-to-importance value for each of the plurality of NAL units of the determined video codec specification to a video coded traffic-aware transceiver for scheduling video traffic based on the indicated information-to-importance value.
