End-to-end congestion control for tcp-friendly flows with variable packet size
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jörg Widmer, Catherine Boutremans
Current TCP-friendly congestion control mechanisms adjust the packet rate in order to adapt to network conditions and obtain a throughput not exceeding that of a TCP connection operating under the same conditions. In an environment where the bottleneck res ...
2004Delay aspects in Internet telephony
In this work, we address the transport of high quality voice over the Internet with a particular concern for delays. Transport of interactive audio over IP networks often suffers from packet loss and variations in the network delay (jitter). Forward Error ...
EPFL2003Adaptive Joint Playout Buffer and FEC Adjustment for Internet Telephony
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Catherine Boutremans
We develop a joint playout buffer and Forward Error Correction (FEC) adjustment scheme for Internet Telephony, which incorporates the impact of end-to-end delay on the perceived audio quality. We show that it provides better quality than the adjustment sch ...
2003Impact of link failures on VoIP performance
We use active and passive traffic measurements to identify the issues involved in the deployment of a voice service over a tier-1 IP backbone network. Our findings indicate that no specific handling of voice packets (i.e. QoS differentiation) is needed in ...

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jörg Widmer, Catherine Boutremans
Current TCP-friendly congestion control mechanisms such as those used in TFRC adjust the packet rate in order to adapt to network conditions and obtain a throughput not exceeding that of a TCP connection operating under the same conditions. In an environme ...
2002Adaptive joint playout buffer and FEC adjustement for Internet Telephony
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Catherine Boutremans
We develop a joint playout buffer and Forward Error Correction (FEC) adjustment scheme for Internet Telephony that incorporates the impact of end-to-end delay on the perceived audio quality. We show that it provides a better quality than the adjustment sch ...
2002Adaptive Delay Aware Error Control for Internet Telephony
Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Catherine Boutremans
Forward Error Correction copes with packet losses, but at the expense of an increase of the end-to-end delay. By failing to take this into account, existing error control schemes for audio often lead to end-to-end delays larger than 150 ms, which has an im ...
2001Realisation of an Adaptive Audio Tool
Catherine Boutremans, Arnaud Meylan
Real-time audio over the best effort Internet often suffers from packet loss. At this time, Forward Error Correction (FEC) seems to be an efficient way to attenuate the impact of loss. Nevertheless to ensure efficiency of FEC, the source rate must be conti ...

Real-time audio over the best effort Internet often suffers from packet loss. So far, Forward Error Correction (FEC) seems to be an efficient way to attenuate the impact of loss. Nevertheless to ensure efficiency of FEC, the source rate must be continuousl ...
