A Mechanism for Multicast Multimedia Data with Adaptive QoS Characteristics
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we describe a mechanism for adaptive transmission of multimedia data, which is based on real time protocols. The proposed mechanism can be used for multicast multimedia data over heterogeneous networks, like the Internet, and has the capability to adapt the transmission of the multimedia data to network changes. In addition, the adaptive multicast transmission mechanism uses an inter-receiver fairness function in order to treat the group of receivers with fairness in a heterogeneous environment. The proposed mechanism uses a “friendly” to the network users congestion control policy to control the transmission of the data. We evaluate the adaptive multicast transmission mechanism through a number of simulations in order to examine its fairness to the group of receivers and its behavior against TCP and UDP data streams.

Multimedia transmission with adaptive QoS based on real-time protocols
In this paper, we describe a mechanism for adaptive transmission of multimedia data, which is based on real-time protocols. The proposed mechanism can be used for unicast or multicast transmission of multimedia data over heterogeneous networks, like the Internet, and has the capability to adapt the transmission of the multimedia data to network changes. In addition, the implemented mechanism us...
متن کاملAnalytical Study of QoS-Oriented Multicast in Wireless Networks
Multicast is a very popular bandwidth-conserving technology exploited in many multimedia applications. However, existing standards of high rate wireless networks provide no error recovery mechanism (ARQ) for multicast traffic. ARQ absence in wireless networks unreliable by their nature leads to frequent packet losses, which is inappropriate for most of multimedia applications. In this paper, we...
متن کاملBehaviour investigation using simulation for redundant multicast transmission supporting adaptive QoS
In this paper we describe a mechanism for redundant multicast transmission of multimedia data supporting adaptive QoS over the Internet and we investigate its behaviour using simulation. There are two major issues that have to be considered when designing and implementing such a mechanism, the fairness, which is the ability to cope with receiver heterogeneity, and the adaptation schemes. The pr...
متن کاملAdaptive Link Sharing in QoS aware IP Networks
The exponential growth of the Internet has put a two-fold demand on switches and IP routers–higher bandwidth and lower latency. In addition, new services that support multicast and multimedia applications require sustained bandwidth to support their quality of service (QoS) requirements. To ensure QoS admission control and scheduling have to be implemented within the network for better control....
