On Optimization of Network-coded Scalable Multimedia Service Multicasting (1502.00087v1)
Published 31 Jan 2015 in cs.IT, cs.MM, cs.NI, cs.PF, and math.IT
Abstract: In the near future, the delivery of multimedia multicast services over next-generation networks is likely to become one of the main pillars of future cellular networks. In this extended abstract, we address the issue of efficiently multicasting layered video services by defining a novel optimization paradigm that is based on an Unequal Error Protection implementation of Random Linear Network Coding, and aims to ensure target service coverages by using a limited amount of radio resources.
