We present a texture descriptor for multimedia contents description in MPEG-7. The current MPEG-7 candidate for the texture descriptor has been designed to be suitable for the numan visual system (HVS). In this paper, the testure is described using perceptual channels that are bands in spatial frequency. Further, the MPEG-7 texture description method has employed "Radon transformation" that is suitable for HVS behavior. By taking average energy and energy deviation of the HVS channels, the texture descriptor is generated. To verify the performance of the texture descriptor, experiments with the MPEG-7 database are performed.
