Abstract

This paper addresses the bottleneck of the conventional video streaming using the client-server approach, and an innovative centralized peer-to-peer approach is proposed. In order to achieve the best perceived quality of service, combination of layered source coding and distributed network adaptation is proposed in this paper. The proposed technique features centralized management, guaranteed perceived quality of service, while offloading the bottleneck traffic loads among the peers. The performance of the centralized peer-to-peer streaming protocol is benchmarked against the differential service technique, by using the H.264 video codec with the progressive fine granular scalable extension.
