Controlling streaming delay in networks

摘要

Techniques are provided for reducing delay during streaming transmissions. For example, a method may include receiving a stream of data segments. The method may include establishing a first group of segments based on the data segments, and generating a first table of information. The method may include transmitting the first table and the first group of segments, and establishing a second group of segments based on the data segments, the second group of segments including a partial overlap of data segments included in the first group of segments. The method may include generating a second table of information, and transmitting the second table and a collection of segments that includes data segments from the second group that were not part of the first group.

1. A method for sending data segments, comprising:
receiving a single stream of data segments; establishing a first group of segments based on the data segments in the single stream; generating a first table of information, the information including one or more attributes for respective segments in the first group of segments; transmitting, on a multicast transmission, the first table and the first group of segments; establishing a second group of segments based on the data segments in the single stream, the second group of segments including a partial overlap of data segments included in the first group of segments; generating a second table of information, the information including one or more attributes for respective segments in the first and second groups of segments; and transmitting, on the multicast transmission, the second table and a collection of segments that includes data segments from the second group that were not part of the first group.
