Resource Reservation Management of Video over Internet

Abstract

Abstract. This paper describes a method 01 Resource Reservation Management (RRM) mechanism that optimises bandwidth reservation in IP routers. The technique uses the original specification 01 the Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) with minimum modifications. In the proposal it is assumed that the video services are coded at multiresolution bit rates, each providing a difJerent quality 01 service. The paper analyses the behaviour 01 the proposed RRM in an Internet network with difJerent levels 01 congeslion. The results show Ihat the proposed mechanism can de/iver an acceptable quality 01 service by dynamically adjusting the demanded bandwidth.
