A Rateless Code Transmission Strategy Based on Real Time Service by Shaohua Zhao, Wei Chen, Bo Bai, Zhisheng Niu, Zhigang Cao

“…Rateless codes has the advantage of good channel adaptivity with a low amount of feedback data.However,the data transmission delay caused by its own coding characteristics and its sensitivity of the feedback link quality directly affects its application in real-time data transmission services.The random delay of feedback ACK which reduce the LT coding's performance was discussed,and then a new LT code based real-time transmission strategy was proposed to address the impact of non-ideal conditions of the feedback link.This strategy can achieve higher data throughout in non-ideal feedback conditions.…”
