Abstract
This paper introduces an RTP-packets' loss recovery scheme in MPEG-4 playback type multicast application model, which is based on retransmission scheme. Through the auxiliary and coordinated buffer playing scheme of layered “buffer-routers”, the RTP-packets' loss recovery in limited time is made possible. We consider in the scheme to handle retransmission request with buffer waiting when network congestion occurs. Thus, neither the degree of congestion will be worsened nor the retransmission request will be lost when sending the request to higher-level buffer router. The RTP-packets' loss recovery scheme suggested by us is not only applied to MPEG-4 multicast application in LAN, but also can be extended to more spacious WAN (wide area network) when user groups comparatively centralize in certain number of local areas.
