Mobile IPTV is a technology that enables users to transmit and receive multimedia traffic anywhere and anytime, using any device. However, in a wireless environment, the network capacity often does not reliably support high-quality high-bandwidth IPTV service traffic. In this paper, a novel resource allocation scheme for Qos-guaranteed mobile IPTV that considers the TV viewing behavior of the user is proposed. A heterogeneous MAC protocol is considered for the service in wireless mesh networks based on IEEE 802.11.
