P2P-based group service management for live video streaming communication

Abstract

As the performance of the next-generation broadband wireless networks is dramatically enhanced, various real time multimedia services have been provided to users through a smart mobile platform. Most of previous research attempts to provide multimedia streaming service are not suitable to support QoS-guaranteed multimedia streaming service. In addition, they have scalability problem with regard to traffic management. In this article, we have designed architecture of P2P-based group service management for live video streaming communication. More specifically, we have designed the group management protocol and algorithm for group member management and the traffic management. We have mathematically analyzed the performance with regard to the average transmission delay.
