Abstract:

A packet reordering-controlled load distribution model for real-time multipath transport was proposed. According to the feedback information of path transmission quality of all paths and packet out-of-ordering between paths from the destination, the source updated dynamically the load share of paths. Packet out-of-ordering risk was minimized while the load balancing proportional to the path transmission quality was satisfied. Simulations show that the proposed model can effectively reduce the total packet loss rate of the destination caused by packet out-of-ordering.

Key words: multipath transport, application-level relay, load distribution, packet reordering, real-time transmission
