Abstract

Big Packet Protocol (BPP), which is part of New IP, was designed to transfer packets for future networking applications, and aims to overcome obstacles within current networks for high precision services. One of the most important advantages of New IP is that it allows changes to packets during transmission. The strategy of BPP is to reduce the packet size by eliminating specific chunks, cutting out segments from the transferred video, rather than dropping or retransmitting packets. This provides an effective mechanism to enhance the performance of video streaming applications, by obtaining continuous delivery and minimum guaranteed quality at the receiver. In order to make video transmission over BPP effective, we need to select a video codec that can do multiple encodings for the same region, such as scalable video coding (SVC). To support such functionality, we have augmented the BPP packet structure in order to transfer video data. This paper describes the use of BPP for carrying video from servers to clients, and defines the packet structure for this purpose, plus the extensions needed to support SVC encoded video. To evaluate the proposed approach, we use SDN to facilitate BPP operations, with results showing a successful implementation of a system using these combined techniques.
