Required bit rate¶

In order to define the bit rate required for the transmission of video streams we need some input parameters, provided in the mission statement:

1. aspect ratio of the video : AR=1,78
2. quality of the encoded video L=720p
3. frame cadence FPS=12 fps

We used the following formula

Bit rate = FPS*5,0692 * L ^1,391 /(1000*AR)

So

Bit rate=322 Kbps

As the link will allow video transmission, we will need an adapted encapsulation protocol, so we must take into account extra bits: we decide to define a bit rate of 500 kbps.
