Rainbow Network Problems and Multiple Description Coding
Abstract
In packet switched networks receivers can get packets of a multiple description code (MDC) from different sources for enhanced QoS and robust transmission. The quality achieved by a decoder increases in the number of distinct rather than the total number of packets received. This property makes the problems of optimizing network flows and transmission strategies for MDC, called rainbow network problems, very different from those of conventional …
