Distributed video coding (DVC) is a new video coding paradigm based upon two fundamental theoretical results: the Slepian–Wolf and Wyner–Ziv theorems. Among other benefits, this new coding paradigm may allow a flexible complexity allocation between the encoder and the decoder. Several DVC codecs have been developed over the years addressing the specific requirements of emerging applications such as wireless video surveillance and sensor networks. While state-of-the-art DVC codecs, such as the DISCOVER DVC codec, have shown promising RD performance, most DVC codecs in the literature do not consider low delay requirements which are relevant for some of the addressed applications. In this context, the main objective and novelty of this paper is to propose an efficient, low delay and fully practical DVC codec based on the Stanford DVC architecture adopting a side information iterative refinement approach. The obtained performance results show that the developed DVC solution fulfils the objectives regarding relevant benchmarks, notably due to the novel side information creation and correlation noise modeling tools integrated in a side information iterative refinement framework.
