The Design and Implementation of Video Surveillance System Based on H.264, SIP, RTP/RTCP and RTSP

The streaming media protocols including SIP(Session Initiation Protocol), RTP(Real-time Transport Protocol), RTCP(RTP Control Protocol) and RTSP(Real-Time Streaming Protocol) is the basic technology of the video surveillance system. A video surveillance system based on SIP, RTP/RTCP and RTSP is designed and implemented in this paper. The video surveillance system uses the SIP protocol to connect the client and the server, and provides the service of the multimedia data transmission between them with the RTP/RTCP and RTSP protocol. The video images of the surveillance system is encoded by H.264 video coding standards. The play of the video data is based on the technology of Direct show. The experiment results show that the surveillance system provides good video quality and adaptability of the network conditions.
