Abstract
The performance of packet-level media-independent forward error correction (FEC) schemes are computed in terms of both packet loss ratio and average burst length of multimedia data after error recovery. The set of equations leading to the analytical formulation of both parameters are first given for a renewal error process. Finally, the FEC performance parameters are computed for a Gilbert (1960) model loss process and compared to various experimental data.
