Abstract :
We analyze and compare various transport protocols in the context of wireless in-vehicle IP-based audio and video communication. We determine the most appropriate transport protocol and discuss its benefits for an application in the car. The analyses are accomplished based on the IEEE 802.11 standard. A testbed is used to measure and compare quality of service values such as throughput, jitter and media quality at the receiver. In the experiments, the traditional protocols TCP and UDP showed the best performance.
