Abstract :
As Internet IPTV extends to mobile devices, suitable transport protocols are sought that can adapt streaming to wireless access networks. This paper proposes a semi-reliable video-rate protocol that provides selective retransmission of scalable video layers should channel packet loss occur. The semi-reliable protocol leads to good video quality and reduces end-to-end delay and start-up delay.
