Abstract

In this paper, we propose using coarse grain scalable (CGS) H.264/AVC to optimize video playback on passive optical networks (PONs) by investigating network performance metrics such as data delay, video delay, and video delay jitter. Video playback is improved by sequentially dropping layers of scalable video. Dropping just a single layer results in improvements of up to 57% for both data and video delay. However, video delay jitter benefits the most with an improvement ranging from 47% up to 87%. Counter-intuitively, dropping subsequent enhancement layers doesn't significantly improve the PONs performance.
