Abstract

The H.264/AVC medium grain scalable (MGS) video standard is utilized to optimize video playback on passive optical networks (PONs). Video traffic delay is the primary object of this optimization, though this technique's impacts on other network performance metrics such as data traffic delay and video traffic delay variance (jitter) are also investigated. Video playback is improved by employing an adaptive algorithm which progressively drops scalable video layers as network utilization increases. The performance impact of the algorithm's three parameters is investigated in detail, and the results of the optimized algorithm are compared to baseline results for reference.
