P2P video multicast for wireless mobile clients
Johannes Karlsson, Jerry Eriksson, Haibo Li · 2006
Abstract — Mobile TV is a new interesting area in the telecommunication industry. The technology for sending live video to mobile clients is characterized by relatively low CPU processing power, low network resources and low display resolution. In this paper we discuss a solution to all of these problems by using application layer multicasting. This can significantly reduce the needed bitrate and required computing resources for each client. At the same time the received video quality is increased. Several different methods for splitting the video into substreams are discussed. A system for application layer multicasting using layered H.264 is also presented. I.
