Abstract

In this paper, we proposed a DiffServ based multicast media gateway, which is called adaptive differentiated service multicast gateway (ADMG), to achieve the QoS guarantee and scalability considerations for multimedia presentation systems. The purpose of the ADMG system is twofold: (1) improve the bandwidth utilization by doing bandwidth reservation based on the layered-media aggregation and (2) improve the receiving quality of the layered media streams while the network is under heavy traffic by dynamically adjusting the sending rate according to the networking situation.
