Systems, apparatuses, and methods for utilizing different modulation coding schemes (MCSs) for different components of a video stream are disclosed. A system includes a transmitter sending a video stream over a wireless link to a receiver. The transmitter splits the video stream into low, medium, and high quality components, and then the transmitter modulates the different components using different MCS's. For example, the transmitter modulates the low quality component using a lower, robust MCS level to increase the likelihood that this component is received. Also, the medium quality component is modulated using a medium MCS level and the high frequency component is modulated using a higher MCS level. If only the low quality component is received by the receiver, then the receiver reconstructs and displays a low quality video frame from this component, which avoids a glitch in the display of the video stream.

Disclosed is a method and system for transmitting and reproducing a video of a dynamic bitrate using a plurality of channels. A video transmission method may transferring frames of a video to N encoders using an interleaving scheme, N denoting a first natural number greater than or equal to 2, generating N video streams by encoding the frames using the N encoders, each of the N video streams corresponding to one of the N encoders, and transmitting each of the N video streams as an independent stream.

A system and method for transmission of a video stream are provided. The system may include: an encoder adapted to generate a video stream comprising a plurality of encoded frames, encoded according to at least one encoding parameter; a comparator in communication with the encoder, the comparator adapted to compare encoded frames of the plurality of encoded frames with input frames to determine a fitness metric reflective of visual quality of the encoded frames; and a controller in communication with the comparator, the controller adapted to adjust the at least one encoding parameter based on the fitness metric.

Disclosed are an electronic device and a method for controlling the electronic device. Specifically, the electronic device according to the present disclosure receives a first image signal and a second image signal which are separated from an original image signal through a first channel and a second channel having different frequency bandwidths, and which have different data rates. When the first image signal and the second image signal are received, the electronic device determines whether an error exists in the second image signal, obtains a first output image signal and a second output image signal on the basis of the first image signal and the second image signal according to a result of the determination, and outputs the obtained first output image signal or second output image signal.

The device for facilitating network access comprises: a first communication module operable to obtain the network access from a first network provider; a second communication module operable to connect to a communication device, the communication device is operable to obtain the network access from a second network provider; and a processor operable to select at least one of the first communication module and the second communication module to connect to an electronic device; wherein the processor is operable to select the at least one of the first communication module and the second communication module based on a property of a set of executable instructions capable of being accessed by the electronic device.

Disclosed herein is a system for providing a low-latency transmission between a client and a server. The client may be a thin client that leverages a codec to receive data transmissions from the server over a dedicated connection and need not require significant processing power. The client-server system has additional capabilities for reducing latency, including providing a view port for viewing portions of documents in a buffer cache and providing a method for blending image content by applying an alpha coefficient to separated red, blue, and green image components.

A novel, pervasive approach to disseminating live streaming content combines secure distributed systems, WiFi multicast, erasure coding, source coding and opportunistic offloading using hyperlocal mobile edge clouds. The solution disclosed to the technical problem of disseminating live streaming content without requiring a substantial equipment, planning and deployment of appropriate network infrastructure points offers an 11 fold reduction on the infrastructural WiFi bandwidth usage without having to modify any existing software or firmware stacks while ensuring stream integrity, authorization and authentication.

Managing Internet Protocol (IP) flows to produce multi-connection communication is contemplated, such as but not necessarily limited to managing a single IP flow simultaneously through disparate physical layers (PHYs). A unification sublayer may be configured as a logical interface between a network layer and a data link layer and/or the disparate PHYs to facilitating partitioning of IP packets included in the IP flow.
