Abstract Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs) allow wireless networks to exist where there is
no or limited network infrastructure. They have attracted renewed attention as part of the 5G …

Developments in mobile devices and wireless networking provide the technical platform for
video streaming over mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). However, efforts to realize video …

Fountain codes were introduced as an efficient and universal forward error correction (FEC)
solution for data multicast over lossy packet networks. They have recently been proposed for …

Cognitive radio (CR) is among the promising solutions for overcoming the spectrum scarcity
problem in the forthcoming fifth-generation (5G) cellular networks, whereas mobile stations …

Mobile video broadcasting service, or mobile TV, is expected to become a popular
application for 3G wireless network operators. Most existing solutions for video Broadcast …

In this paper we propose a multipath video streaming mechanism based on the Scalable
Video Coding (SVC) extension of H. 264/AVC. Our method adapts to the heterogeneous …

In this paper, we deal with the problem of jointly determining the optimal coding strategy and
the scheduling decisions when receivers obtain layered data from multiple servers. The …

We tackle the issue of providing video streaming support over Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks
(VANETs). Video streaming imposes stringent requirements in terms of delivery ratio and …

In this paper we propose a multipath video streaming mechanism based on the Scalable
Video Coding (SVC) extension of H. 264/AVC. Our method adapts to the heterogeneous …

In this paper, we consider a scenario where nodes in a MANET disseminate data chunks
using rateless codes. Any node is able to successfully decode any chunk by collecting …
