Improving Video Transmission over Heterogeneous Networks
Mobile Ad-doc Networks (MANETs) have been conceived to operate as stand-alone networks, which means that data traffic will be restricted within the MANETs. However, in most …
Simulation and experimental testbed for adaptive video streaming in ad hoc networks
This paper presents a performance evaluation of the scalable video streaming over mobile ad hoc networks. In particular, we focus on the rate-adaptive method for streaming scalable …
A QoS-aware routing protocol with adaptive feedback scheme for video streaming for mobile networks
One of the major challenges for the transmission of time-sensitive data like video over mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) is the deployment of an end-to-end QoS support mechanism. …
Performance Evaluation of Scalable Video Streaming in Mobile Ad hoc Networks
The development of video streaming services on wireless ad hoc networks is a challenge task as a consequence of different limitations such as bandwidth-constrained, variable …
SVCEval-RA: an evaluation framework for adaptive scalable video streaming
Multimedia content adaption strategies are becoming increasingly important for effective video streaming over the actual heterogeneous networks. Thus, evaluation frameworks for …
A hybrid gateway discovery algorithm for supporting QoS communications in heterogeneous networks
In most practical applications, ad hoc mobile devices demand the access to wired hosts located beyond the limits of the mobile ad hoc network, forming a heterogeneous …
Buffering Technique for Optimizing Energy Consumption in the Transmission of Multimedia Traffic in Ad-Hoc Networks
