In the past, we proposed a Hybrid Error Correction (HEC) scheme with Packet Repetition (PR) technique for guaranteeing a certain PLR requirement under strict delay constraints. Unfortunately, the HEC-PR scheme can only work efficiently in multicast scenarios with small group size and small link PLR. Our further studies show that better performance can be obtained by combining the HEC-PR scheme with other traditional HEC schemes such as Type I HARQ and Type II HARQ techniques. Based on this idea, in this paper, a novel Adaptive HEC (AHEC) scheme combining the HEC-PR scheme with Type I and Type II HARQ techniques is proposed to satisfy a certain PLR requirement for delay bounded multicast services. Furthermore, the performance of the AHEC scheme is optimized by choosing the scheme with the least needed redundancy information automatically among the three HEC schemes. Finally, by applying the AHEC scheme in a typical wireless DVB scenario, we analyze the performances of the AHEC scheme and compare it with the HEC-PR scheme and an Adaptive Forward Error Correction (AFEC) scheme. The results show that the proposed AHEC scheme outperforms both the AFEC scheme and the HEC-PR scheme.展开更多

This paper tackles the problem from another perspective, trying to improve the individual streaming quality while not increasing the backbone traffic. Specifically, we apply a peer-paired collaborative streaming architecture that exploits the power of peer-to-peer networking and extends the peer-paired collaboration from a live broadcasting scenario to the more general on-demand streaming scenario by introducing a unique catch-up scheme. Experimental results show that the peer-paired collaboration can bring about a significant performance gain for on-demand streaming application scenarios. In addition, we propose a forward error correction based error recovery technique that can resist up to 50% packet losses regardless of whether the losses are independent or shared.展开更多

This paper presents a multiple description coding (MDC) and forward error correction (FEC) based multiple path transmission schemes for interactive multimedia (M3FEC), which improves the end users’ experience by maximizing a rate-distortion (R-D) based optimization problem. The proposed model considers both the network diversity and the application’s stringent requirements, and combines the individual merits of the three promising technologies of multiple path overlay routing, MDC and FEC. Extensive numerical analysis and PlanetLab experiments demonstrate that M3FEC successfully combats packet losses, error propagation, and unpredictable network dynamics. This method also significantly increases distortion for interactive multimedia by over 10 dB than traditional IP-layer single path transmission in poor network environments, and outperforms the performance achieved by using MDC or FEC alone.展开更多
