We propose a novel prioritized intra refresh method for the wireless video communication. The proposed method considers the characteristics of the human visual system, the error-sensitivity of the bitstream, and the state of the time-varying wireless channel jointly. An expected perceptual distortion model was used to adjust the intra refresh rate adaptively. This model consists of the perceptual weight map based on an attention model, the bit error probability map based on bitstream size, and the dynamic channel state information (CSI). Experimental results indicate that, compared with other intra refresh methods that consider only the content of the video or the CSI, the proposed method improves the average peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of the whole frame by about 0.5 dB, and improves the average PSNR of the attention-area by about 0.8 dB.
