Abstract :
In this paper, we consider aggregating multiple video streams and transmitting the merged stream over multiple error-prone paths. We propose a novel multi-stream error protection scheme based on packet division multiplexing access (PDMA) and cross-path forward error coding. Compared with the traditional time division multiplexing access (TDMA)-based error protection scheme, the proposed scheme outperforms 1.43~1.88 dB for the averaged PSNR of all received streams.
