Distributing and Evaluating the Performance of Multimedia Content Distribution in Multihomed Wireless Network

___________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT: The technology in wireless and mobile IP Network has undergone a great advancement in the recent years. The performance of TCP and UDP is not enough to the recent advancements in technologies. So, IETF has proposed SCTP which supports multihoming and multi-streaming techniques which increases the performance of the transmission of multimedia content. SCTP supports both reliable and unreliable transmission. SCTP has the ability to work with more than one IP addresses thus a session can remain active in network failures. This SCTP has the ability to support multiple network connections in a single end to end association that is the reason why SCTP can support any heterogeneous network seamlessly, transparently and continuously communication sessions
