Design of Remote Image Surveillance System Based on GPRS

Based on the GPRS network and the still picture compression standard: JPEG, a remote image surveillance system is implemented. The architecture and design of image collection terminal and surveillance center are presented. Image collection terminal acquires image data from the image sensor, compresses them using FDCT, packages the encoded image data and sends them to the GPRS network. Surveillance center is designed to realize the decompression, management and display of the compressed image data received from the GPRS network. The system has low cost and high performance. Therefore,it can meet the general need of image surveillance.
