An Effective Cross Layer-Based Video Streaming Algorithm Over Mobile Ad Hoc Network
Gyeong Cheol Lee, Hwangjun Song · 2009
This work presents an effective cross-layer video streaming algorithm over mobile ad hoc networks. The proposed algorithm selects the most efficient PHY mode of IEEE 802.11 multi-rate service based on the information available at the application, MAC, and physical layers at each node in the distributed way in order to minimize end-to-end delay and remain packet loss rate in tolerable range at the final destination. Finally, experimental results are provided to show the superior performance of the proposed algorithm.
