This approach is also inefficient in caching networks because low-quality video is encoded differently and causes additional pressure on storage and the required BW in the network

Embodiment Construction

[0035] In the following paragraphs, with reference to the accompanying drawings, implementations of the method and related devices according to the invention will be described. In the first paragraph of the specification, it is described figure 1 with figure 2 The main elements of this network are presented. In the second paragraph, all connections between the aforementioned network elements and said components are defined. In the following paragraphs, is the actual implementation of the method of controlling congestion in a media distribution network.

[0036] The main elements of this embodiment of the invention are: a media server CS (which can be a media source library, a video headend, a VoD server, or a segment-based media screen-coupled set-top box, personal computer or media device). The communication network coupling each client device CD1, CD2, CD3, and CD4 to the media server CS may include a cache and / or buffer storage network consisting of multiple cache and / ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for controlling congestion in a media distribution network, a related system, a related congestion monitoring device, and a related media distribution personalization device. The media distribution network includes a media distribution server and a plurality of client devices. The media distribution server is coupled to each client device of the plurality of client devices over the media distribution network. The media distribution server distributes media to client devices on a path between the media distribution server and the client device. The related method includes the steps of: monitoring congestion in the media distribution network; and subsequently adapting a level of personalization of the distribution media to the client device based on the monitored congestion.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method of controlling congestion in a media distribution network as claimed in the preamble of claim 1 and to a related system as claimed in claim 2 . Background technique [0002] Currently, network congestion control in media distribution networks is usually performed by admission control, which leads to the refusal to set up new video distributions in a congested network. In this way, the network will avoid quality degradation on already established streams. [0003] Media services such as video on demand (also known as VoD) are suspending TV, and long tail content such as offered on Internet video repositories such as YouTube are generating incremental amounts of unicast traffic in the network. To address the scaling issues that come with unicast distribution, operators are moving to caching and buffer storage technologies to support media transmission and distribution. Furthermore, novelty services using some form of p...
