Abstract

We discuss a fundamentally new approach to digital packetized video bandwidth prediction (i.e., bandwidth forecasting). This fundamentally new approach provides an accurate bandwidth forecast at the expense of increased queueing delay. We outline this new forecasting method we call feedforward bandwidth indication (FFBI), compare it to existing forecasting methods, and analyze the tradeoffs associated with its use. Finally, we outline future avenues of research.
