A New Architecture for Transmission of MPEG-4 Video on MPLS Networks

Abstract

Due to insufficient network bandwidth on Internet, multimedia-oriented applications are still not popular now. The traffic on Internet often causes congestion in routers. Therefore, Internet must overcome these challenge and bottleneck to provide more multimedia-oriented applications. In this paper, we study the transmission of MPEG-4-based video traffic in MPLS networks. We propose a better architecture, coined Actively Reserved Bandwidth Architecture, for improving CR-LDP in MPLS networks. The architecture is designed to overcome the bottleneck of router in MPLS networks. And, this approach is beneficial to the transmission of MPEG-4-based video traffic.
