Implementation of real-time video streaming with fuzzy logic controller

The increasing demand of video streaming recently causes a trouble on network congestion due to a huge data rate transmission. One concept to reduce such a problem is to dynamically adjust the rate of video streaming according to an available bandwidth. This paper introduces a fuzzy logic controller to control a real-time video streaming by adjusting either a frame rate or a video quality. In this paper, two experimental environments, LAN or GPRS connections, are investigated. The results show that a fuzzy logic controller is able to control a frame rate and a quality of video streaming according to an available bandwidth automatically.
