Abstract
With advances in wireless networks and advent of powerful mobile devices such as smart phones, the demand for mobile IPTV services has been increasing. It is essential to minimize the energy consumption of mobile devices because their battery capacity is limited. In this paper, we therefore propose a new streaming structure in P2P-based mobile IPTV systems to minimize the energy consumption of mobile peers using agent peers. Agent peers can decrease the energy consumption of mobile peers significantly by performing streaming functionality and exchanging control messages for joining and leaving overlay networks in place of corresponding mobile peers. Finally, by simulation experiments using an energy model, we show that our proposed streaming structure can increase the lifetime of mobile peers using agent peers.
