“…The TFD option offers in-band CAS that can be basis of both dynamic and static absolute QoS assurance. The article summarizes and extends results shown in papers [1] and [2], where two extreme cases (one HD video stream competes for bandwidth with K = 1, 2, 3 TCP flows and N = 1, 2, ..., 10 HD video streams compete for bandwidth with K = 10 TCP flows [2]) were discussed.…”

“…The compression and coding of the hvideo material was made according to the H.264 standard. As with experiments shown in [2], the tests that were chosen contained sequences with the target bit rate of the video streams set to 40 Mbps (the maximum for Blu-ray). Each clip is 19 seconds long.…”

“…Experiments were organized in a similar way as in the papers [1] and [2]. The variable number of video streams N, N = 1, 2, ..., 10, competes for bandwidth of the shared link with K simultaneously transmitted TCP flows, K = 0, 1, ..., 10.…”

The Traffic Flow Description (TFD) option of the IP protocol is an experimental option, designed by the Authors and described by the IETF's Internet Draft. This option was intended for signalling for QoS purposes. Knowledge about forthcoming traffic (such as the amount of data that will be transferred in a given period of time) is conveyed in the fields of the option between end-systems. TFD-capable routers on a path (or a multicast tree) between the sender and receiver(s) are able to read this information, process it and use it for bandwidth allocation. If the time horizons are short enough, bandwidth allocation will be performed dynamically. In the paper a performance evaluation of an HD video transmission QoS assured with the use of the TFD option is presented. The analysis was made for a variable number of video streams and a variable number of TCP flows that compete with the videos for the bandwidth of the shared link. Results show that the dynamic bandwidth allocation using the TFD option better assures the QoS of HD video than the classic solution, based on the RSVP protocol.
