Smooth loss with variability smoothing factor to increase bandwidth utilization
B. Piyatamrong, P. Piyakhun · 2002
As the rapid growth of the Internet data streaming the TCP and UDP protocols could not efficiently utilize and share bandwidth for the data streaming. There are many techniques to improve a transmission data stream to archive multimedia data. The adaptive transmission control using smoothed loss is a technique that controls the transmission rate to an appropriate network condition. This paper improves this technique by using a variability smoothing factor which can improve the transmission rate in the whole transmission. Simulations are used to study an adaptive behavior of the adaptive transmission control procedure. The results of experiment shows that a rate adaptive control procedure can increase the transmission rate by using a variability smoothing factor.
