    Abstract: This disclosure provides a Kalman filter based predictive jitter buffer adaptation for smooth live video streaming. In the present disclosure, at receiver of a live video steaming system, reassembly of received data packets is performed to reconstruct different types of encoded frames transmitted by a transmitter. The different types of encoded frames are Full encoded frames in basic state and Delta encoded frames. To tackle data packet loss, the receiver is also equipped with a frugal yet efficient loss handling mechanism for both basic and delta frames. To achieve smooth rendering of the live video, the receiver employs a Kalman Filter based Jitter Buffer Adaptation mechanism. The Kalman Filter based Jitter Buffer Adaptation mechanism observes variability in arrival time of the open-loop best-effort traffic and adapts a jitter-buffer based on future end-to-end delay estimates. Thus, smoothness of streaming is preserved at the receiving end augmented with robust loss-resilience.
