Most of multipath multimedia streaming proposals use Forward Error Correction (FEC) approach to protect from packet losses. However, FEC does not sustain well burst of losses even when packets from a given FEC block are spread over multiple…
Packet losses are common events in today's networks. They usually result in longer delivery times for application data since retransmissions are the de facto technique to recover from such losses. Retransmissions is a good strategy for many…
In off-line streaming, packet level erasure resilient Forward Error Correction (FEC) codes rely on the unrestricted buffering time at the receiver. In real-time streaming, the extremely short playback buffering time makes FEC inefficient…
