Priority Dropping in Network Transmission of Scalable Video

By constructing a model which takes into account the frame dependence of multimedia streams, we analyze the performance of different packet-dropping mechanisms and find that scalable video combined with the priority dropping mechanism can bring higher throughput, lower delay and lower delay jitter. We also find the optimum system parameters for multimedia transmission. This study is important for achieving better performance for video transmission over IP networks.
