Media-Aware Rate Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
Streaming media transfers over the Internet are expected to behave in a TCP friendly manner and react appropriately to congestion similar to the way TCP does. However, our work shows that existing “TCPfriendly” protocols are not necessarily “media friendly”. In this paper, we present our findings on the impact of the TFRC protocol on streaming media quality. We propose the MARC (Media Aware Rate Control) protocol that, unlike TFRC, exhibits significant tolerance towards transient changes in background workload, while still maintaining TCP-friendliness.

Backhaul-Aware Decoupled Uplink and Downlink User Association, Subcarrier Allocation, and Power Control in FiWi HetNets
Decoupling the uplink and downlink user association improves the throughput of heterogeneous networks (HetNets) and balances the traffic load of macro- and small- base stations. Recently, fiber-wireless HetNets (FiWi-HetNets) have been considered as viable solutions for access networks. To improve the accuracy of user association and resource allocation algorithms in FiWi-HetNets, the capacity ...
متن کاملMobile-location aware rate adaptive unslotted CLSP/DS-CDMA PRN: performance in a heavily-correlated fading channel
This paper presents a throughput-delay analysis of an unslotted DS-CDMA packet radio network (PRN) using mobile-location aware rate adaptive Channel Load Sensing Protocol (CLSP) for media access control (MAC) in a heavily-correlated Rayleigh fading channel. This adaptive CLSP scheme is proposed in our previous work [1], where an uncorrelated fading model is used for investigating system perform...
متن کاملQos-aware Traac Shaper for 100vg-any Lan
In this paper, we develop a QoS-aware traac shaper, which is implemented in LRMP (Local Resource Management Protocol) of the VGAnet Suite. In contrast to the conventional traac shapers, e.g., leaky buckets and token buckets, which simply shape the average rate (and burst) of data transmission without any knowledge of the QoS parameters, e.g., delay jitter and synchronization skew, the QoS-aware...
متن کاملPortable and adaptive specification of disk bandwidth quality of service
Continuous media (CM) applications require Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees from the disk, as well as from the CPU and network. Their requirements can often be expressed in terms of data rates, which are portable descriptions of resource needs. QoS-aware disk schedulers need an accurate predictor of their clients’ resource usage in order to perform admission control and limit the effect of m...
متن کاملDynamic rate control in wireless video communications
We are witnessing a gradual integration of video communication services into low bit-rate mobile links. However, these services (e.g. streaming video) are not yet as popular as they should be. Transmission of real-time video in wireless networks still faces several challenges. This paper reports some our experience with a mechanism which provides a context-aware rate control for the handling of...
