In　order　to　realize　the　real-time　rendering　of　3D　virtual　avatar　(VA)　on　handsets,　the　technology　of　dynamic　impostor　is　used　to　draw　the　VA.　Furthermore,　the　distributed　architecture　based　on　PC/Handset　is　applied　to　reduce　the　occupancy　of　memory　in　handsets　and　the　method　of　levels　of　action　(LOA)　and　simple　texture　compression　are　adopted　to　save　the　required　wireless　network　bandwidth.　The　experiments　show　that　the　method　can　satisfy　adequately　the　requirement　of　real-time　VA　rendering　on　handsets.
