Scheduling for H.264 video traffic over GEO satellite networksScheduling for H.264 video traffic over GEO satellite networks Πλήρης Δημοσίευση σε Συνέδριο Conference Full Paper 2015-11-102007enThe provision of acceptable Quality-of-Service (QoS) for integrated multimedia traffic over a geosynchronous earth orbit (GEO) satellite network demands the existence of a well-designed Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol. This paper proposes a new dynamic satellite bandwidth allocation technique (Predictive Resource Reservation Access, PRRA) which is based on accurate H.264 video traffic prediction. Our scheme is shown to provide very good throughput and delay results, when compared with other efficient schemes from the literature and with an "ideal" satellite bandwidth allocation scheme.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/130-136 5th ACM international workshop on Mobility management and wireless access Koutsakis Polychronis Κουτσακης Πολυχρονης Giannotta, M.E Lanos ,A Lazaris ,A Association for Computing Machinery Network analysis (Communication) communication network analysis network analysis communication
