Abstract

Multipath video streaming over Video Distribution Network comes as a promising solution to overcome the limitations of the classical single path and IP-level video streaming approaches. For this purpose, we have proposed a dynamic multipath video streaming mechanism, based on quality of experience evaluations and available bandwidth estimations. In this paper, we present the results of performance evaluation when applying our video streaming method. Results show the ability of our mechanism to adapt automatically and in real-time to the load variation on different paths in order to maximize the overall quality perceived by end-users.
