Abstract

Broadband wireless delivery of IPTV is under active investigation, though this environment is challenging. This paper examines the threat from slow and fast fading, traffic congestion, and channel packet drops. The proposed response is a combination of: rateless channel coding, which is adaptively applied; data-partitioned source coding to exploit prioritized packetization; and redundant slice provision, which is the focus of the evaluation in this paper. When fast and slow fading occur, this paper shows that redundant slices are certainly necessary but this provision is more effective for medium-quality video than it is for high-quality video.
