Enhanced UPnP QoS architecture for network-adaptive streaming service in home networks

Abstract

The existing versions of UPnP QoS architecture have several, limitations associated with how they provide QoS-guaranteed streaming service over dynamically time-varying networks. In this paper, an enhanced UPnP,QoS architecture is proposed to support network-adaptive media streaming in home networks. The proposed streaming scheme is verified by realizing a prototype implementation over an UPnP streaming testbed.
