LDA+: A TCP-Friendly Adaptation Scheme for Multimedia Communication
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present an end-to-end adaptation scheme, called the enhanced loss-delay based adaptation algorithm (LDA+), for regulating the transmission behavior of multimedia senders in accordance with the network congestion state. LDA+ uses the real-time transport protocol (RTP) for collecting loss and delay statistics which are then used for adjusting the transmission behavior of the senders in a manner similar to TCP connections suffering from similar losses and delays. Performance results collected using simulations and measurements over the Internet suggest the efficiency of LDA+ in terms of network utilization, congestion avoidance and fairness towards competing TCP connections.

متن کاملThe Loss-Delay Based Adjustment Algorithm: A TCP-Friendly Adaptation Scheme
Many distributed multimedia applications have the ability to adapt to fluctuations in the network conditions. By adjusting temporal and spatial quality to available bandwidth, or manipulating the playout time of continuous media in response to variations in delay, multimedia flows can keep an acceptable QoS level at the end systems. In this paper, we present a new scheme called the loss-delay b...
متن کاملMulticast of Multimedia Data
INTRODUCTION The heterogeneous network environment that Internet provides to real time applications as well as the lack of sufficient QoS (Quality of Service) guarantees, many times forces applications to embody adaptation schemes in order to work efficiently. In addition, any application that transmits data over the Internet should have a friendly behaviour towards the other flows that coexist...
متن کاملPerformance Analysis of Binomial Rate Adaptation Scheme for TCP-friendly Congestion Control
The overwhelming majority of multimedia streaming applications in today’s Internet employ UDP as their transport layer protocol. However, UDP is quite primitive with only a simple checksum for error detection, but no error recovery and traffic control. UDP flows disregard the fair competition with TCP traffic and probe for more network bandwidth as possible as they can. Extensive deployment of ...
متن کاملConstrained TCP-Friendly Congestion Control for Multimedia Communication
With the lack of admission control and resource reservation mechanisms in the Internet, overload situations can only be avoided by having the end systems deploying congestion control schemes. That is, the end systems should adjust their transmission and reception behavior in accordance with the available network resources. This is generally achieved by adjusting the transmission behavior of a s...
