Packet loss in video transfers over IP networks

چکیده
In this paper, we investigate the behavior of packet loss in Internet Protocol (IP) networks with two transport protocols: User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). We simulate packet loss in congested networks, and we use wavelet analysis to characterize packet loss collected from the trace driven simulation studies. We also analyze the impact of time-scales on the characterization and modeling of loss processes. Our analysis reveals that the packet loss behavior depends on the underlying transport protocol and that the packet loss in UDP transfers exhibits long-range dependence over the coarser time-scales. Furthermore, we show that packet loss patterns preserve the longrange characteristics of the traffic traces generated by the video sources.

The 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...

In this paper, we address the problem of robust packet video transmission over heterogeneous wired-to-wireless IP networks. Digital video delivered over wired-towireless networks is expected to suffer quality degradation from both packet loss and bit errors in the payload. In this paper, the quality degradation due to packet loss and bit errors in the payload are quantitatively compared. Furthe...
