Fountain Code Based Virtual Path for Video Transmission over Heterogeneous Wireless Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose an effective path virtualization system using Fountain code that provides the highest possible data rate with satisfactory delay and block loss rate constraints to enhance video quality. Basically, Fountain code and video codec H. 264 are tightly coupled to efficiently use the path diversity over existing heterogeneous wireless networks. Finally, the proposed system is implemented and tested in real environments.

HMTP: Multipath transport protocol for multihoming wireless erasure networks
This paper proposes a fountain-code-based multi-path transport protocol, called heterogeneous multi-path transport protocol (HMTP), and evaluates its performance. HMTP improves the throughput performance and path utilization of multi-homing wireless erasure networks. It solves the receive buffer blocking problem and eliminates the need for retransmissions and in-order packet delivery, both of w...
متن کاملA New Unequal Error Protection Technique Based on the Mutual Information of the MPEG-4 Video Frames over Wireless Networks
The performance of video transmission over wireless channels is limited by the channel noise. Thus many error resilience tools have been incorporated into the MPEG-4 video compression method. In addition to these tools, the unequal error protection (UEP) technique has been proposed to protect the different parts in an MPEG-4 video packet with different channel coding rates based on the rate...
متن کاملThe Feedback Based Mechanism for Video Streaming Over Multipath Ad Hoc Networks
Ad hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks without a pre-installed infrastructure. Such networks are widely used in military applications and in emergency situations as they permit the establishment of a communication network at very short notice with a very low cost. Video is very sensitive for packet loss and wireless ad-hoc networks are error prone due to node mobility and weak links. H...

The proliferation of video streaming applications that distribute data to a large number of clients motivates the design of fast and reliable multimedia delivery systems capable to adapt effectively to diverse transmission conditions. Receiver-driven layered multicast (RLM) efficiently addresses the issue of heterogeneity in clients’ available bandwidths and packet loss rates by shifting rate c...
متن کاملVideo Transmission over Cognitive Radio TDMA Networks under Collision Errors
Cognitive Radio (CR) networks are emerging as new paradigm of communication and channels sharing in multimedia and wireless networks. In this paper, we address the problem of video transmission over shared CR networks using progressive compression source coding associated to fountain codes. We consider a TDMA-based transmission where many subscribers share the same infrastructure. Each Secondar...
