In this paper, we investigate MPEG video transmission over available bit rate (ABR) service. It requires small cell delay variation and non-trivial minimum cell rate (MCR) to guarantee quality of service (QoS). Existing ABR congestion control schemes cannot meet the requirements since they are designed for data applications. We propose a closed-loop rate-based congestion control scheme called explicit rate indication scheme for MPEG (ERISM). ERISM maintains the queue length minimal, and allocates cell rates to connections with non-trivial MCR. Simulation results show that ERISM provides a good transmission capability for MPEG video.
