Perhaps something like a recent outage we shared about where we could see total packet loss for monitoring tests that were crossing various router interfaces.
The main effects of congestion are routing delays and packet loss (PL) [5], [8], [18], [23].
(ii) develop a simulation scenario using NS 3 simulator to compare the applicability and efficiency of the proposed scheme with that of the PNEMO scheme and NEMO BSP (ii) Investigate and analyse numerical and simulation outcomes in terms of handoff delay, and packet loss.
It was observed when contention window size was high, the chances of packet loss rate were low and successful packet rate was high.
At just 1% packet loss on a 1 Gbps WAN link and 10ms round trip time, a normal unprotected link using TCP/IP will only achieve 2.8% of the theoretical throughput as opposed to 96.6% if the same link is protected with Durostream.
The packet loss rate experienced by a single TCP connection may not be able to reflect the real packet loss status of the measured network.
high quality) and network limitations (packet loss) was studied.
As the next-generation GatesAir Intraplex IP Link codec, the Intraplex IP Link MPXp includes GatesAir's Dynamic Stream Splicing technology to mitigate IP packet loss and eliminate off-air time, forward error correction, and a trio of network interfaces for optimal stream reliability, while empowering broadcasters with more signal transport options from a single box at low bitrates.
This includes GatesAir's unique Dynamic Stream Splicing technology to mitigate IP packet loss and eliminate off-air time, forward error correction, and a trio of network interfaces for optimal stream reliability, while empowering broadcasters with more signal transport options from a single box at historically low bitrates.
