Abstract

P2P video streaming over WMN includes different multimedia applications such as IPTV, video surveillance and video conferencing. It also introduces some challenges such as required level of QoS. Packet loss recovery methods can improve the experienced amount of QoS which leads to better video quality on peers. Although ARQ and FEC methods have been used in many video streaming applications, they are unable to provide enough level of QoS in P2P video streaming over WMN. Hybrid methods improve the performances of packet loss recovery schemes. But they do not carefully consider the characteristics of the source and the destination nodes, thus are not suitable for P2P video streaming over WMN. Therefore, in this study, an adaptive packet loss recovery method is proposed to select the loss recovery policy according to the source and the destination characteristics and loss probability of communication.
