P2P Layered Streaming for Heterogeneous Networks in PPSP K. Wu, Z. Lei, D. Chiu James Zhibin Lei 17/03/2010
Single layer video streaming • Scenario • PCs, set-top boxes and mobile devices may all need to access and provide service for the same content. • Problems • Use multiple versions of video content (each encoded at different resolution or visual quality). For example, lower resolution video can be sent to, mobile devices while higher resolution or high quality video is sent to PC or STB players • Peers in different versions will not help each other. • The overall video quality received will not be optimal.
Multiple layer video streaming • Layered Encoding • A video sequence is divided into multiple non-overlapped bit streams, or layers. • Base Layer • Contains the basic data representing the most important features of the video. • Enhancement Layers • Contain data that progressively refine the reconstructed video quality. • Layered Dependency • The upper layers depend on the lower layers. • Benefit • Each peer contribute its maximized bandwidth. • Minimize the overall transmission cost
Message Flows • PUT-LAYER (Put Layer Information) into Tracker • GET-LAYER (Get Layer Information) from Tracker • PUT-CHUNK (Put Chunk Information) into Tracker • GET-PEERLIST (Peer Selection) • LAYER-CHANGE (Layer Change) • STATISTICS
Open issues • Data Scheduling • Different strategy with single layer streaming • System Performance Metrics • Throughput and Delay • Layer Delivery Ratio • Useless Packets Ratio • Jitter Prevention • User Performance Metrics • Start-up Delay • Playback Continuity • Playback Delay
User Performance Metrics • Start-up Delay • PCs and set-top boxes may all need to access and provide service for the same content. • Problem • Use multiple versions of video content (each encoded at different resolution or visual quality) • Peers in different versions will not help each other. • The overall video quality received will not be optimal.
