Dynamic determination of file transmission chunk size for efficient media upload

摘要

A wireless communications device dynamically determines a number of wireless network parameters prior to data transfer to increase network efficiency and decrease delays during the transmission of a multimedia messaging service message. Before sending a multimedia messaging service message, a number of wireless network parameters are dynamically determined by the wireless communications device. Based upon these determined wireless network parameters, the wireless communications device determines an optimal file transmission size. The multimedia messaging service message may then be divided into one or more file chunks having a file size equal to the optimal file transmission size by the wireless communications device. The file chunks are transmitted by the wireless communication device to another wireless user.

主权项

1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-usable instructions embodied thereon for performing a method of transmitting files over wireless networks, the method comprising:
receiving a request to transmit a file over a wireless network; determining a size of the file; determining a first set of one or more wireless network parameters of the wireless network, determining an optimal file transmission size based on the first set of one or more wireless network parameters; dividing the file into a first file chunk having a file size equal to the optimal file transmission size; transmitting the first file chunk over the wireless network; receiving an acknowledgement message over the wireless network; determining a size of a remaining portion of the file; determining a second set of one or more wireless network parameters of the wireless network; determining a second optimal file transmission size based on the second set of one or more network parameters; dividing the remaining portion of the file into a second file chunk having a file size equal to the second optimal file transmission size; transmitting the second file chunk over the wireless network; andreceiving an acknowledgement message over the wireless network.
