In order to offer the best user experience and cope with dynamically varying network conditions, new streaming technologies, such as adaptive streaming, are rapidly emerging. Accurate bandwidth estimation is a crucial component and a precondition of successful streaming adaptation. In this paper we will address the importance of bandwidth estimation and evaluate the applicability of bandwidth estimation algorithm originally designed for home networks in a more general Internet environment, in the context of adaptive streaming. The algorithm is implemented as a part of MPEG DASH compliant client.
