Abstract:
This paper presents a non-intrusive estimator for Internet TV services based on streaming technology. Analyzing the video
packets received by the client application, the estimator is capable of selecting the most suitable encoding bitrate for the
available bandwidth in the end-to-end path. The estimator has been integrated in a real client/server architecture and evaluated
with different network traffic situations. The results of the performed evaluation have revealed the stability and adaptation
speed as the best qualities of our proposal.
