A Study on Semi-Reliable Communications for Real-Time Data Stream Services

Abstract

Internet of Things (loT) services that provide stream-oriented communications have become increasingly popular, and the demand for such services is expected to grow in the future. For example, data stream services used in automated driving and connected cars require low latency and real-time communication, but it is also essential to reduce loss rates as much as possible to provide high-quality services. Therefore, we propose a semi-reliable communication scheme to provide real-time communication with low latency and loss rates by using Forward Error Correction (FEC) technique at relay routers in networks, and show its effectiveness.
