In order to guarantee the best user experience throughout different network access technologies with dynamically varying network conditions, it is fundamental to enable proper reception of the multimedia content. To overcome the limitations/deficiencies of evaluated adaptive streaming algorithms (such as slow rate adaptation at stable network conditions), we propose an Advanced Rate Adaptation algorithm (ARA, in the following text) and test it under various network scenarios. The algorithm is implemented as a part of the MPEG DASH compliant client.
