Applying a variable encoding/decoding scheme in a communication network

摘要

Various systems, devices and methods for providing variable encoder/decoder mechanisms are disclosed. As one example, a coder/decoder device including a plurality of coder/decoder mechanisms, a coder/decoder selection engine, and a computer readable medium is disclosed. The computer readable medium includes a network statistic. The coder/decoder selection engine is operable to select at least one of the plurality of coder/decoder mechanisms based at least in part on the network statistic. Further, the coder/decoder selection engine is operable to offer the at least one of the plurality of coder/decoder mechanisms.

1. A coder/decoder system, the system comprising:
an instruction execution unit; a computer readable medium encoded with computer executable instructions, wherein the computer readable medium encodes: at least one network statistic; and instructions executable by the instruction execution unit, wherein the instructions are executable to:
implement a plurality of coders/decoders;provide an offer of at least two of the plurality of coders/decoders, wherein the at least two of the plurality of coders/decoders are chosen-based at least in part on the at least one network statistic; andsubsequent to the provision of said offer, receive an acceptance of the offer, wherein the acceptance of the offer identifies a selected one of the offered coders/decoders, the instructions further operable to:
determine failure of the selected coder/decoder;based on the determined failure of the selected coder/decoder, modify the offer; andprovide the modified offer.
