The performance comparison of PRSCTP, TCP and UDP for MPEG-4 multimedia traffic in mobile network

PR-SCTP (partial reliability stream control transport protocol) is the new unreliable extension to SCTP. This paper first introduces SCTP and PR-SCTP. Then it describes the mechanism of transmitting MPEG-4 over PRSCTP. Next we compare the performance of PR-SCTP, TCP and UDP for MPEG-4 video traffic over mobile networks.
