  3. Background • Home Gateway • The home gateway is an intelligent network interface device located at the consumer premises. • It enables residential user to access the internet services delivered to home and also to access the different services offered by various smart devices located within home. • Three-screen Service • is a multimedia service and provides the right solution for consumers to access rich multimedia resources on any device, anytime, and anywhere.

  4. Background • Scalable Video Coding • H.264/SVC is in particular of importance because it envisions methods for controlling video characteristics such as resolution, quality, and frame rate according to the network condition. For this purpose, SVC uses a layered coding approach to provide combined spatial, temporal, and quality scalabilities.

  5. Background • Scalable Video Coding • SVC coding has several advantages : • reduce total bandwidth, storage, and computational complexity by supporting many clients with a single video content file. • applicable to many unequal error protection (UEP) methods using priorities of each layer. • SVC approach is inherently more robust because of its error resilient tools.

  6. Background • Raptor FEC • The Raptor FEC was developed by Amin Shokrollahi as one of fountain codes in 2001 and is also called a rateless code. • Several standards have adopted Raptor code as a standard: • Multimedia broadcast and multicast services (MBMS) in the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) • DVB-H • Reliable multicast transport (RMT) working group within the internet engineering task force (IETF). • The Raptor FEC can be designed with both the systematic and non-systematic approaches.

  30. Multi-gateway Structure • Clients in different coverage regions can connect to a number of gateways (top). • Association of each client to more gateways result in higher quality (bottom).

  31. Multi-gateway Optimization • Benefit : reducing the load on the backbone network. • This paper formulates the problem as an optimization problem with the objective of minimizing the total bandwidth of the scalable video delivery.

  32. Multi-gateway Optimization • This paper first introduces an abstract model and describe the optimal solution for multi-gateway multicast of scalable content. • And demonstrates that traditional multicast, which requires all the gateways in the network fully deliver all the layers of a SVC content, is not optimal.

  33. Multi-gateway Optimization • Consider a source node S which provides scalable video with L layers l1, . . . , lL . • This paper optimize for the total output rate of the S such that connection to any Nα number of gateways should enable the client to successfully receive layers {l1, . . . , lα}.

  34. Multi-gateway Optimization • Consider the n-th gateway and let r1n, r2n , . . . , rLnbe the rate of the layers 1 through L provided by S to the n-thgateway. • The total rate sent to n-thgateway :

  35. Multi-gateway Optimization • To successfully recover a layer α, the sum of the rates rα ≥ 0 received by a client from all the gateways should be lα. • Therefore, constraints on successful recovery of layers result in the following optimization problem :

  36. Multi-gateway Optimization • Thus, the dual problem of optimization with variables p1, . . . , pL, is

  37. Multi-gateway Optimization • The solution of the optimization problem :

  38. Multi-gateway Optimization • In [10], it is shown that given enough budget for storing a file in a distributed network, spreading of the budget maximizes the recovery probability for a collector with random access to a set of storage nodes.

  39. Achieving the Optimal Solution with Rateless Coding • Source Sshould provide every gateway the whole of layer 1, and 1/i of the layer i. • The property of ratelesscoding provides the flexibility to encode data on the fly and proves to be useful in achieving the optimal solution.

  40. Comparison of the Optimal Solution with Simple Multicast • Gain of various layer growths

  41. Experimental Results • Performance evaluation • Overhead r = 12%

  42. Conclusion • Adaptive SVC layer-switching selects appropriate layers to be sent according to ABW by RSSI-based feedback. • Raptor FEC overhead control method controls its overhead according to PLR. • The proposed method outperforms traditional methods and enhances video quality from 2dB to 5dB while simultaneously reducing bitrates from 28% to 36% .
