To improve the robustness of video communications over IP networks against packet losses,
numerous IPTV and broadcasting standards have adopted the 2D application-layer forward …

Forward error correction (FEC) techniques are widely used to recover packet losses over
unreliable networks in real‐time video streaming applications. Traditional frame‐level FEC …

An optimization technique based on an adapted combination of simulated annealing (SA)
and tabu search (TS) is presented. This method aims at finding near-optimal unequal error …

We adapt simulated annealing for speeding up the search of optimal configurations for
protecting video transmission over IP networks. The considered protection scheme is a …

Burst packet loss is a common problem over wired and wireless networks and leads to a
significant reduction in the performance of packet‐level forward error correction (FEC) …

This thesis presents two enhanced FEC-based schemes to protect real-time packetized
multimedia streams in bursty channels. The objective of these novel architectures has been …

In the recent years, an ever-increasing portion of the services related to video data
transmission are supplied through IP networks, as they present numerous advantageous …
