ULTRASOUND MEDICAL VIDEOSTREAMING OVER M-WIMAX ON CROSS LAYER DESIGN

Abstract

Mobile telecommunication systems from 3G to WIMAX technology will facilitate the provision of such faster data transfer rates and high quality video streaming. It provides real time adaptability of the rate of quality control in the transmitted ultrasound images and provides better performance in terms of m-QoS like frames per second, peak signal-to-noise ratio and frame size. WiMAX technology provides a Quality of Service (QoS) system that allows system operators to configure a network to provide maximum performance compared to conventional Best Effort (BE) systems. In this paper, we address the increase the Qos over a m-WiMAX network. We present the results of application testing using WiMAX protocol where the main focus is to show how utilizing a QoS system can benefit streaming real time multimedia. The results show how WiMAX technology is beneficial to multimedia applications.
