The researchers go deep indeveloping efficient techniques in these fields such as compression of data, image and video. Recently,video compression techniques and their applications in many areas (educational, agriculture, medical бн)cause this field to be one of the most interested fields.Wavelet transform is an efficient method that can be used to perform an efficient compression technique.This work deals with the developing of an efficient video compression approach based on frames differenceapproaches that concentrated on the calculation of frame near distance (difference between frames). Theselection of the meaningful frame depends on many factors such as compression performance, framedetails, frame size and near distance between frames. Three different approaches are applied for removingthe lowest frame difference. In this paper, many videos are tested to insure the efficiency of this technique,in addition a good performance results has been obtained. %K Discrete Wavelet Transform %K Video Compression %K Frame Selection Key %K Compression Performance and Near Distance Calculation. %U http://airccse.org/journal/ijsc/papers/2411ijsc07.pdf
