A method of synchronous distributed multimedia data transmission using multiple links

摘要

Authors have proposed a system, Multitrack, realizes high speed multimedia data transmission, even on low speed links. The Multitrack is based on SHAKE technology which authors have proposed. In the Multitrack system, two or more mobile terminals are connected temporarily, and form a cluster network. Streaming multimedia data is transmitted via multiple links which mobile terminals in a cluster network have. The multimedia data can be received by all the mobile hosts in the cluster. We proposed traffic distribution methods to solve problems on transmitting multimedia data with multiple links that have different properties. In this paper, we analyzed the proposed method with simulations.
