Video Traffic Characteristics of Modern Encoding Standards: H.264/AVC with SVC and MVC Extensions and H.265/HEVC

Figure 5

Illustration of traffic characteristics and link bandwidth requirements for Sony encoded with H.264 SVC with medium-grain scalability (MGS) for base layer QPs and 40 and enhancement layer QP with and without QP cascading (C), in comparison with H.264/AVC single-layer encoding with cascading QPs.
