Such wireless transmission considers various parameters of channel like reliability,quality of service (QoS), transmission rate, transmission delay etc. User datagram protocol (UDP) is afast transmission protocol used by most of the real-time applications as it is suitable for delay sensitiveapplications like video and audio transmission. UDP does not provide flow control or error recovery anddoes not require connection management. Since more applications with real-time constraints areintroduced day by day, both over wired and over wireless, some improvements should be made in orderto obtain better end to end performance. This paper surveys the literature on real time communicationover wireless and suggests an intermediate solution providing more reliability in transmission usingadaptive error control mechanism. The idea used is to inject an adaptive amount of redundant packets(RPs) in every sent block (or datagram) in order to achieve a desired recovery rate at the receiverwithout using any retransmission mechanism. The technique used is called adaptive forward errorcontrol (AFEC) and is implemented at physical layer. The network simulator NS-2 is used to evaluateAFEC and the simulation results indicate that the suggested methods can guarantee enhanced networkthroughput for video transmission in the high packet loss wireless network. %K Network Protocols %K Digital Video Transmission %K Wireless Network %K End-to-End Delay %K AFEC %K PDR %K NS-2 %U http://airccse.org/journal/jwmn/0213wmn12.pdf
