Abstract
Conventional protocols for live media streaming are not lightweight and hence not suitable for constrained video transmitting devices. The protocols are poor in terms of delay performance under lossy conditions and need to maintain a lot of states at the constrained transmitting end leading to load on the memory and draining energy of the devices. The conventionally used protocols do not perform well for intermittent connectivity. Usually the existing streaming solutions act either in completely reliable manner, using reliable transport protocol like TCP, or in completely unreliable manner using best effort unreliable transport protocol like UDP. The present disclosure provides a single streaming solution which can change the protocol semantics and maintains a balance between reliability and delay-performance, thereby optimizing the overall system goodput. The protocol does this intelligently by inferring the criticality of the segment in flight and enable live video streaming for Internet of Things (IoT).
