چکیده

This memo describes the use of Forward Error Correction (FEC) codes to efficiently provide and/or augment reliability for one-to-many reliable data transport using IP multicast. One of the key properties of FEC codes in this context is the ability to use the same packets containing FEC data to simultaneously repair different packet loss patterns at multiple receivers. Different classes of FEC codes and some of their basic properties are described and terminology relevant to implementing FEC in a reliable multicast protocol is introduced. Examples are provided of possible abstract formats for packets carrying FEC. Luby, et. al. Informational [Page 1] RFC 3453 FEC in Reliable Multicast December 2002

Evaluating the Utility of FEC with Reliable Multicast

Forward Error Correction (FEC) has been proposed as a technique for implementing efficient reliable multicast (RM). However, FEC incurs costs in encode/decode delay and implementation complexity. How much benefit is provided relative to these costs and how dependent is the benefit on the specific RM

Cyclic Best-effort Multicasting with FEC

Cyclic best-effort multicast supports reliable multicast transport by sending information repeatedly. The authors present forward error correcting (FEC) cyclic best-effort multicast which transmits FEC encoded redundant data as well as original data. FEC cyclic multicasting reduces the number of packet transmissions at least by half compared to plain cyclic multicasting.

The success of the World Wide Web and the Internet is causing great demand of bandwidth, increasing the latency and overloading popular servers. We propose an approach to treat very popular and frequently changed web documents using a continuously reliable multicast transmission. The beneets are very eecient use of the network resources, a reduction on the server's load, lower response times an...

RFC 5052 FEC Building Block August 2007

This document describes how to use Forward Error Correction (FEC) codes to efficiently provide and/or augment reliability for bulk data transfer over IP multicast. This document defines a framework for the definition of the information that needs to be communicated in order to use an FEC code for bulk data transfer, in addition to the encoded data itself, and for definition of formats and codes...
