Abstract

See full text

'Correction of errors and losses occurring during a receiver-driven layered multicast (RLM) of real-time media over a heterogeneous packet network such as the Internet is accomplished by augmenting RLM with one or more layers of error correction information. Each receiver separately optimizes the quality of received audio and video information by subscribing to at least one error correction layer. Ideally, each source layer in a RLM would have one or more associated multicasted error correction data streams (i.e., layers). Each error correction layer contains information that can be used to replace lost packets from the associated source layer. More than one error correction layer is proposed as some of the error correction packets contained in the data stream needed to replace the packets lost in the associated source stream may themselves be lost in transmission.'
