Scheduling for H.264 Video Traffic over GEO Satellite Networks
In Proc. of the 5th ACM International Workshop on Mobility Management and Wireless Access (MobiWAC), Chania, Greece, October 2007
Overview
PRRA: dynamic bandwidth allocation for satellite uplinks that reserves capacity using accurate H.264 traffic prediction.
Key contributions
- DAR(1) model of single and multiplexed H.264 streams used for proactive scheduling.
- Handles 63% system load under a strict 0.1% packet-drop target, close to an ideal scheduler (72%).
Abstract
The provision of acceptable Quality-of-Service (QoS) for integrated multimedia traffic over a geosynchronous earth orbit (GEO) satellite network demands the existence of a well-designed Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol. This paper proposes a new dynamic satellite bandwidth allocation technique (Predictive Resource Reservation Access, PRRA) which is based on accurate H.264 video traffic prediction. Our scheme is shown to provide very good throughput and delay results, when compared with other efficient schemes from the literature and with an “ideal” satellite bandwidth allocation scheme.
