Devices, softwares and methods for redundantly encoding a data stream for network transmission with adjustable redundant-coding delay

摘要

Devices, softwares and methods are provided for redundantly encoding a data stream into frames for network transmission as packets. A main encoder encodes a data stream into main frames, while a redundant encoder encodes it into redundant frames. The redundant frames have a redundant-coding delay from the main frames that is adjustable to accommodate many different sets of network conditions.
