This paper proposes multi-connection uplink video streaming for mobile WiMAX. Establishing multiple TFRC connections for a single video stream has emerged as a promising lightweight way of coping with wireless channel losses in a congestion-controlled tandem network. This study shows the impact (in terms of video quality and latency) on multi-connection streaming performance in the presence of burst errors on the wireless link. It also establishes how many connections are feasible.","PeriodicalId":285648,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Multimedia Computing and Information Technology (MCIT)","volume":"81 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121688319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
