In this paper we present a feedback-based adaptation mechanism that adjusts the transmission power of a wireless card on commodity PCs depending on the quality of the connection. Our purpose is to manage the available power in order to achieve lower power consumption without negatively affecting the user's perception of connection quality. We based our implementation on an existing theoretical model...
Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are becoming more essential to wireless communications due to growing popularity of mobile devices. However, MANETs do not seem to effectively support multimedia applications and especially video transmission. This paper presents a cross-layer mechanism for efficient video transmission over this type of networks. The proposed mechanism consists of a priority-scheduling...
We present in this paper a simulation-based comparison of one of the best known multicast congestion control schemes - TFMCC - against our proposed adaptive smooth multicast protocol (ASMP). ASMP consists of a single-rate multicast congestion control, which takes advantage of the RTCP sender (SR) and receiver reports (RR) in order to adjust the sender's transmission rate in respect of the network...
We introduce Adaptive Smooth Simulcast Protocol (ASSP) for simulcast transmission over best-effort networks. ASSP is a new multiple-rate protocol that implements a single rate TCP-friendly protocol as the underlying congestion control mechanism for each simulcast stream. ASSP is build on top of the RTP/RTCP protocol and exploits the RTCP sender and receiver reports for the dissemination of feedback...
Multi-rate multicast schemes can be broadly classified into two categories. In layered multicast, a video file is transmitted by a base layer, which contains the most important features of the video. Additional layers, called enhancement layers, contain data that refine the quality of the base layer. In simulcast, the video file is transmitted by replicated layers that contain the same content at...
This paper presents the performance evaluation of a multi-rate multicast protocol named adaptive smooth simulcast protocol (ASSP) for simulcast video transmission. ASSP implements a single rate TCP-friendly protocol as the underlying congestion control mechanism for each simulcast stream. ASSP is built on top of the RTP/RTCP protocol and exploits the RTCP sender and receiver reports for the dissemination...
We present in this paper a simulation-based comparison of two single-rate multicast congestion control schemes (TFMCC and PGMCC) against our proposed adaptive smooth multicast protocol (ASMP). ASMP consists of a single-rate multicast congestion control, which takes advantage of RTCP sender (SR) and receiver reports (RR). The innovation in ASMP lays in the "smooth" transmission rate, which...
In this paper we introduce an equation-based smooth multicast congestion control for adaptive multimedia transmission over best-effort wired networks. Target of the proposed schema is (a) smooth transmission rate, in order to minimize the audio-video (AV) encoding and decoding distortion and (b) TCP friendly transmission. The "smoothness" lays in the way the TCP-friendly transmission rate...
We introduce Adaptive Smooth Multicast Protocol (ASMP), for multimedia transmission over best-effort networks. The smoothness lays in the calculation and adaptation of the transmission rate, which is based on dynamic estimation of protocol parameters and dynamic adjustment of the ldquosmoothness factorrdquo. ASMP key attributes are: (a) adaptive scalability to large sets of receivers, (b) TCP-friendly...
