Instead of the WebRTC multimedia client application, a client-based WebRTC proxy selectively multiplexes incoming WebRTC traffic and / or demultiplexes outgoing WebRTC traffic

摘要

In an embodiment, a first WebRTC proxy module on a first UE receives a multiplexed stream from a first WebRTC multimedia client application on the first UE. The first WebRTC proxy module de-multiplexes into at least first and second de-multiplexed streams. The first WebRTC proxy module sends the first de-multiplexed stream to a second WebRTC proxy module on a second UE via a first set of links with QoS, and sends a second de-multiplexed stream to the second WebRTC proxy module on a second set of links. The second WebRTC proxy module re-multiplexes the first and second de-multiplexed streams to obtain either an original or compressed version of the multiplexed stream, and then delivers the re-multiplexed stream to a second WebRTC multimedia client application on the second UE.
