Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention in particular concerns a method and a device for estimating a level of use of a communication network linking a server and at least one client, said communication network being used to transmit a data stream at a transmission rate corresponding to the temporal frequency of said data stream, said data stream comprising at least one item of information characterizing a theoretical rate dependent on said transmission rate of said data stream. After having obtained ( 121 ) said theoretical rate of said data stream, the real reception rate of at least one part of said data stream is evaluated ( 109 ). Said theoretical rate and said evaluated rate are then compared ( 113 ) to estimate said level of use of said communication network. The level of subscription of a client to multicast sessions may be adapted according to the level of use of the communication network.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for a computer for estimating a level of use of a communication network linking a server and at least one client, the method implemented by the at least one client, comprising steps of: obtaining at least one metadata from a data stream transmitted over the communication network at a transmission rate corresponding to a temporal frequency of the data stream, the metadata characterizing a theoretical rate of the data stream based on the transmi…
