A QoE-driven FEC rate adaptation scheme for scalable video transmissions over MIMO systems

We propose a forward error correction (FEC) coding rate adaptation scheme which maximizes the quality of experience (QoE), for scalable video coding (SVC) based video transmissions over multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems. The proposed scheme adaptively selects the best set of spatial channels, number of video layers and their corresponding FEC coding rate according to channel state information (CSI) from the receiver. Unlike previous work, our proposed scheme distributes the FEC encoded bit streams to multiple spatial channels so that additional diversity gains can be obtained. Due to the complexity of the optimization, we decompose the original problem into several sub-problems, which can then be solved by a heuristic algorithm. The optimal solution can be found by choosing the best among all the candidate solutions obtained from the sub-problems. The effectiveness and superb performance of our proposed scheme can be demonstrated by many simulations with different videos and channel conditions.
