Abstract

The Internet has become the most popular network in spite of its weakness in real-time multimedia service provision. This paper describes how to enhance the quality of the real-time video service under the current Internet environments. It first investigates various factors related to the quality. It proposes efficient methods to minimize the impact of packet loss and jitter in the consideration of the requirements and limitations unique to software implementation of MPEG-4 video.
