摘要:
A packet transmitting method wherein an explicit multicast packet can be transmitted with the consumption of communication bands of broadcast media being suppressed. According to this method, a link level multicast is used to transmit an explicit multicast packet only to next hop nodes that, even when receiving the explicit multicast packet through the link level multicast, will not output the same packet to the broadcast media, while a unicast is used to transmit an explicit multicast packet to the other next hop nodes.

It is an object of the present invention to receive/play a streaming immediately after a switching not to disconnect it when a terminal for receiving the streaming is switched from a first receiving terminal to a second receiving terminalA communication method of switching a receiving terminal of a streaming to which a rate control using TFRC is applied from a first receiving terminal to a second receiving terminal, includes a deciding step of deciding whether or not a route on a network between a transmitting terminal of the streaming and the first receiving terminal is identical to a route on the network between the transmitting terminal and the second receiving terminal, and a transferring step of transferring history information of a packet loss that the first receiving terminal is managing to the second receiving terminal when it is decided that both routes are identical.

A first communication terminal which communicates with a second communication terminal through a best effort network includes: a communication history storage unit in which a communication history is stored for each of the communication terminals; and a round-trip delay time calculation unit which calculates a round-trip delay time that occurs in a communication with the second communication terminal. The second communication terminal includes a target loss event rate calculation unit which calculates a target loss event rate that is to be set by the first communication terminal in a communication with the second communication terminal, based on a past transmission rate that is recorded in the communication history and has been realized in the communication with the second communication terminal, and on the round-trip delay time that occurs in the communication with the second communication terminal. The first communication terminal changes a transmission rate which is set at the present time to a target transmission rate which is calculated based on the target loss event rate and the round-trip delay time. According to the transmission rate control device, when it is determined that the bandwidth that is estimated to be available in a communication through the network is rapidly changed, the transmission rate can be changed to a target bit rate in a short time period.

It is an object to provide a flow control method in which a packet round trip time is not excessively calculated out and its performance is not unnecessarily deteriorated even at the time of continuously connected packet transfers through relays of a plurality of receiving terminal devices. This method is directed to a flow control method in which the delivery of packets are carried out through relays of a plurality of receiving terminal devices. The method is comprised of steps (S501-S517) for acquiring a packet round trip time for every pair of neighboring terminal devices in a path of the delivery, a selection step for selecting one from the acquired round trip time in accordance with a predetermined standard, and a step (S518) for calculating a packet transmission rate on the basis of the selected round trip time, so that the round trip time of each receiving terminal device is measured and the transmission rate is calculated in accordance with the measured result. Thus, a packet round trip time is not excessively calculated out, and data transmission performance can be improved.

A streaming communication device accurately estimates a packet which will be lost in the future. A streaming communication device which transmits or receives a stream via a router over a packet-switched network includes: accumulating unit configured to accumulate a one-way delay that is a time period between transmission and reception of a packet which includes a small segment of the stream; a detecting unit configured to detect a sign of a packet loss by identifying a tendency toward an increase in the one-way delay accumulated in the accumulating unit; and an estimating unit configured to estimate, when the sign is detected, a loss packet from a degree of the increase in the one-way delay accumulated in the accumulating unit, the loss packet being a packet which will be lost.

To transmit multimedia data in such a manner that is adaptive to the transmission capability of a receiving apparatus and/or to the congestion state of a network. In a transmitting apparatus (100), a receiver capability estimating part (102) estimates, based on feedback information from a receiving apparatus (200), a useable band. A receiver classifying part (103) classifies, based on the useable band, the receiving apparatus. A receiver list rearranging part (105) rearranges, in order of transmission capability, a receiver list where classified receiving apparatuses are listed in classes. A packet generating part (106) generates a packet having the receiver list and transmits it at an appropriate transmission rate.

It is made possible to appropriately execute packet filtering and unauthorized access detection in a situation in which mobile network communications are operated.A home agent 404A acquires IP address, port number, and media type obtained by call control of a call control proxy server 403A and sends them to a firewall 700. A packet filtering unit 400 of the firewall 700 performs packet filtering so as to allow the IP packet determined according to the IP address and port number pair to pass through. An unauthorized access monitor 701 takes out information of the corresponding media type out of the normal access determination condition previously defined for each media type, monitors a packet based on the normal access determination condition, and detects that access deviating from normal access is unauthorized access.
