Abstract :
A packet control mechanism via a cross-layer feedback to reduce bursts of packet drops for transmission of video over mobile multihop ad-hoc networks is presented. With this approach, the application layer would be capable of controlling the packet transmission flow in accordance with the multihop characteristics of the routing layer.
