QoS requirements for real-time time-series data transfer over Internet are significantly different from those of traditional applications like voice and video streaming. We evaluate and compare the efficacy of three transport protocols, TCP, UDP and TRABOL for radar data streaming. The impact of network dynamics on the quality of radar data is investigated as well. TRABOL, an application level transport protocol combined with a time-series sample selection scheme is proposed to meet the QoS requirements. Performance results obtained using radar emulation test-bed shows that proposed strategy meets the application QoS requirements without overly impacting the performance of other cross-traffic streams on the network.
