Abstract
In this paper we consider the problem of resource allocation for video transmission over mesh networks with delay bound constraints and priority-based packet scheduling. We observe that priority-driven packet scheduling at the intermediate network routers has a direct and significant impact on the queuing behaviors and delay bound violation probabilities of video packets, as well as the overall end-to-end video distortion. Using learning methods, we develop a packet delay bound violation probability model for video transmission over multihop networks with priority-based packet scheduling. With this model, we can successfully predict the probability of packets being dropped due to violation of specified delay bounds. We also observe that the transmission distortion caused by packet drops exhibits a unique exponential behavior with priority-based packet scheduling. With these analysis results, we formulate the resource allocation for multisession video transmission over networks with priority-driven packet scheduling under delay bound constraints as a multiobjective optimization problem. Evolutionary optimization methods based on single- and multiobjective genetic algorithms are proposed to solve the problem and obtain the optimal resource allocation. Extensive experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed resource-distortion models and optimization algorithms.
