TCP Streaming for Low-Delay Wireless Video

Overview With the penetration and popularity of mobile devices such as pocket PCs and smart-phones, there is an increasing need of low-delay video streaming over wireless channel. Traditionally, UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is used for video streaming. However, due to unreliable transmission and fluctuating bandwidth of wireless channel, this requires error concealment and recovery mechanisms which greatly increases the complexity and delay of the system. Furthermore, UDP streams are often more difficult to penetrate firewalls. This paper proposes using TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) for video streaming due to its ease of use, reliability, and flexibility in selecting frames to transmit.
