Abstract
This paper examines the transmission of MPEG video over high error rate links such wireless links. We present results showing the effect of transmission errors on MPEG streams and suggest an algorithm based on a combination of Forward Error Correction (FEC) and Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) as a way to minimize its effects. We introduce a packet tagging technique that takes into account the particular semantic of MPEG flows to explicitly tell the network, both wired and wireless, which packets should necessarily be delivered correctly.
