It has been well recognized as an efficient approach for broadcasting popular videos by partitioning a video data stream into multiple segments and launching each segment through an individual channel simultaneously and periodically. Based on the design premises, the fibonacci broadcasting (FiB) scheme allows a client with two-channel bandwidths to receive video segments. Extending FiB, this work designs a new FiB scheme (called FiB+) to achieve small buffering space as well as low bandwidth demand at the client. Extensive simulation was conducted, which demonstrated that FiB+ could have 30% smaller client buffer size than FiB.
