Abstract

In order to transmit video data stored in servers with limited bandwidth in IoT environments to many clients, a transmission plan must be established by considering factors such as the number of transmission rate changes, peak transmission rate, and transmission rate changes. This transmission plan is called smoothing, and includes CBA that minimizes the number of transmission rate increases, MCBA that minimizes the number of transmission rate changes, and MVBA to minimize the transmission rate changes. In this work, to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm[16], we compare the proposed algorithm with the existing smoothing algorithms with the peak rate, the number of transmission rate changes, the rate increase, the peak rate utilization, and the average transmission rate with various video data and buffer sizes. The evaluation results show that the proposed algorithm helps to efficiently use the server's finite network resources by establishing a transport plan with the lowest average transfer rate.

IoT(Internet of Things) 환경에서 한정된 대역폭을 갖는 서버에서 저장된 비디오 데이터를 많은 클라이언트들에게 전송하기 위해서는 전송률 변화 횟수, 첨두 전송률, 전송률 변화량 등의 요소를 고려하여 전송 계획을 세워야 한다. 이 전송 계획을 스무딩이라고 하며 전송률 증가 횟수를 최소화하는 CBA, 전송률 변화횟수를 최소화하는 MCBA, 전송률 변화량을 최소화하기 위한 MVBA 등이 있다. 본 연구에서는 평균 전송률을 최소화하기 위해 제안된 알고리즘[16]에 대한 성능을 평가하기 위해, 제안된 알고리즘과 기존 스무딩 알고리즘들에서의 첨두 전송률, 전송률 변화횟수, 전송률 증가횟수, 전송률 변화량, 첨두 전송률 이용률, 평균 전송률을 다양한 비디오 데이터와 버퍼 크기로 비교한다. 평가 결과 제안 알고리즘은 평균 전송률이 가장 낮은 전송 계획을 세움으로써, 서버의 한정된 네트워크 자원의 효율적인 사용에 도움을 준다.
