COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RECEIVING MEDIA DATA

摘要

Communication devices are provided comprising a receiver configured to receive a data stream including data for reconstructing media data at a first quality level; a memory for storing data for reconstructing the media data at a second quality level wherein the first quality level is higher than the second quality level; a determiner configured to determine whether the reception rate of the data included in the data stream fulfills a predetermined criterion; and a processing circuit configured to reconstruct the media data from the data included in the data stream if it has been determined that the reception rate of the data included in the data stream fulfills the predetermined criterion and to reconstruct the media data from the data stored in the memory if it has been determined that the reception rate of the data included in the data stream does not fulfill the predetermined criterion.
