“…The flexibility and robustness of the layered scheme of scalable video coding has motivated the development of several proposals to integrate SVC with other network technologies. For example, Sanna and Izquierdo [8] reported SVC video streaming over peerto-peer networks with network coding techniques, Alabdulkarim et al [9] implement a solution for SVC video streaming over ZigBee networks, Yaacoub et al [10] propose a scheme for improving the scalable video streaming in vehicular networks and in [11] SVC over LTE mobile networks is reported.…”

This paper presents a performance evaluation of the scalable video streaming over mobile ad hoc networks. In particular, we focus on the rate-adaptive method for streaming scalable video (H.264/SVC). For effective adaptation a new cross-layer routing protocol is introduced. This protocol provides an efficient algorithm for available bandwidth estimation. With this information, the video source adjusts its bit rate during the video transmission according to the network state. We also propose a free simulation framework that supports evaluation studies for scalable video streaming. The simulation experiments performed in this study involve the transmission of SVC streams with Medium Grain Scalability (MGS) as well as temporal scalability over different network scenarios. The results reveal that the rate-adaptive strategy helps avoid or reduce the congestion in MANETs obtaining a better quality in the received videos. Additionally, an actual ad hoc network was implemented using embedded devices (Raspberry Pi) in order to assess the performance of the proposed adaptive transmission mechanism in a real environment. Additional experiments were carried out prior to the implementation with the aim of characterizing the wireless medium and packet loss profile. Finally, the proposed approach shows an important reduction in energy consumption, as the study revealed.
