The paper gives an overview on trends in mobile communications which is currently one of the most emerging markets. The demand for new and extended services is a driving force for the development of future mobile networks. Especially the provision of video communications is a great challenge. The current status of MPEG and ITU-T/SG15 concerning mobile communications is described and related to current projects. In the second part some aspects for the design of video codecs for mobile video telephony are outlined. Based on the coming standard H.26P and advanced video codec is described and its suitability for mobile networks is proven by some simulation results.
