  1. MPEG-TFRCP: Video Transfer with TCP-friendly Rate Control Protocol Department of Informatics and Mathematical Science, Graduate School of Engineering Science, Osaka University, Japan Masaki Miyabayashi E-mail: miyabays@ics.es.osaka-u.ac.jp ICC2001

  2. Use of multimedia apps. increases Introduction • Unfairness: TCP vs.UDP • TCP: traditional data applications • Congestion control • UDP: real-time multimedia applications • No control mechanisms TCP，UDP co-exist 10 UDP 9 TCP 8 7 6 Rate [Mbps] 5 4 3 “Greedy” UDP degrades TCP performance 2 1 0 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 Time [sec]

  3. TCP-friendly rate control “A non-TCP connection should receive the same share of bandwidth as a TCP connection if they traverse the same path.” • TFRCP (TCP-friendly Rate Control Protocol) • Equation-based control • Estimate TCP throughput • AIMD control (Additive Increase/Multiplicative Decrease) ICC2001

  5. Research Targets • Demonstrate applicability of MPEG-TFRCP to real system • Perceived video quality at receiver • MOS (Mean Opinion Score) • Observation of traffic on the link • Average throughput • Rate variation • Improve MPEG-TFRCP • Rate control algorithm • Control interval ICC2001

  11. Variants in packet loss probability derivation • Original • React so quickly against short-term congestion Extreme rate fluctuation • Cumulative packet Loss probability (CL) Number of Lost packets , within each control interval Loss = Number of transmitted packets Total number of Lost packets Loss = Total number of transmitted packets , from beginning of the session ICC2001

  13. Election of the control interval • When interval is too short, • Perceived video quality becomes unstable • Cannot estimate network condition precisely • When interval is too long, • Cannot follow changes of network condition 32-RTT: proposal é ù 32 RTT = Interval GoPtime 8-RTT: ê ú GoPtime ê ú shorter 16-RTT: 64-RTT: longer 96-RTT: ICC2001

  14. 16-RTT or 32-RTT control interval is appropriate Several settings of control interval Throughput [Mbps] MOS value Friendliness TFRCP TCP 8-RTT 3.10 3.53 0.878 2.25 16-RTT 2.87 3.71 0.774 3.25 32-RTT 2.97 3.70 0.802 3.00 64-RTT 2.51 4.06 0.618 3.33 96-RTT 2.33 4.29 0.543 2.50 ICC2001
