Abstract
This letter presents a novel spatial error concealment algorithm for the H.264 video coding. The error concealment algorithm is based on directional interpolation. Mojette transform is used to estimate the orientation features of the damaged blocks, and the image is interpolated in the appropriate directions. The proposed method is compared with bilinear interpolation algorithm in the reference implementation of H.264 and all directional interpolation. Experimental results prove that the proposed algorithm has better subjective and objective image reconstruction quality.
