“…Since there is possibility that the wireless channel becomes unavailable, therefore cross-layer interactions between the PHY and MAC layers are needed so that the limited wireless resource could be optimally used while satisfying the video delivery requirements. In [16], a cross-layer framework is proposed to integrate layer 3 and layer 2 and also a remapping scheme is used for a better buffer utilization allowing a low frame dropping ratio. In this paper, a cross-layer architecture between APP and MAC layers is proposed.…”

Abstract. Video delivery application over wireless network has become increasingly important in recent years. For achieving more flexible video streams transmission, the scalable extension of the H.264/AVC standard has been developed, as well as which is combined with temporal, spatial and quality scalabilities to adapt efficiently the wireless bandwidth resource. In this paper, a cross-layer optimization for robust H.264 scalable video delivery over WiMAX network is proposed. In order to obtain a better delivery performance, the proposed method is used the hierarchical B-picture approach to classify video packets into different priorities. In the cross-layer optimization, the scalable video and packet classifier are proposed at the application layer, and the packet priority and queue allocation are used at the MAC layer. Finally, it is shown by NS2 simulations that the proposed method provides more stable wireless bandwidth and also achieves a better quality of the video streaming delivery.

“…IEEE 802.16 is able to cover large geographical area since the distance between the Base Station (BS) and the Subscriber Station (SS) can extend up to 30 miles (Mai et al, 2010). IEEE 802.16 defines the layer 1 (Physical (PHY)) and layer 2 (Data link or Media Access Control (MAC)) of the Open System Interconnection (OSI) seven layer network model.…”

The objective of the broadband wireless technologies is to ensure the end to end Quality of Service (QoS) for service classes. Wimax is a revolution in wireless networks which could support real time multimedia services. In order to provide QoS support and efficient usage of system resources an intelligent scheduling algorithm is needed. The design of detailed scheduling algorithm is a major focus for researchers and service providers. In this study, a channel aware cross-layer scheduling algorithm for Wimax networks has been proposed. This scheme employs Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) value which allocates bandwidth based on the information about the quality of the channel and service requirements of each connection. The proposed algorithm is described in detail and evaluated through series of simulation. The simulation results prove that the proposed algorithm reduces the packet loss rate and delay and thus improves throughput by 12.8%.

a b s t r a c tThis paper focuses on the transport of Unicast and Multicast traffic in the mobile broadband networks. The main objective is to allow video streaming applications to adapt its parameters according to 802.16MAC layer conditions and resource availability. For unicast traffic, we propose a cross layer optimizer, named XLO, between scalable video streaming application and IEEE 802.16 MAC layer. XLO uses the existing service flow management messages exchanged between a base station (BS) and a subscriber station (SS) and make them available to the video streaming application via a specific XLO interface. We implemented the XLO in the QualNet simulator and performed extensive simulations using a personalized scalable video traffic generator, capable of streaming video with different data rates and quality levels. We also introduce an enhanced admission control function at the BS that takes into account video adaptability property. The simulation results show the effectiveness of our XLO mechanism for delivering better quality of service. For multicast traffic, we propose a new solution based on superposition coding and make use of scalable video coding in order to optimize the network resources.
