The proposed OSRC (Optimal packet Scheduling and Rate Control) algorithm provides average reward optimal solution to the joint scheduling and rate control problem. The efficacy of the OSRC algorithm is demonstrated against optimal FEC based schemes and results are verified over TFRC (TCP Friendly Rate Control) transport with ns-2 simulations.EnglishAverage reward optimalityMarkov decision processesPacket schedulingRate controlRate-distortion optimizationVideo streamingComputational complexityImage communication systemsConference Paper10.1117/12.704284
