A transport coding gain estimation in the conditions of time limitation for maximum acceptable message delay

Abstract

Recently, low message delay becomes more and more important. It allows the implementation of new applications and services interacting in almost real time that was impossible before. A requirement of low message delay now is a part of many communication standards such as 5G and recommendation papers of future standards such as Tactile Internet proposed by ITU-T. In this research, we perform an efficiency estimation of the transport coding for packets with an exponentially distributed delay. We consider a traffic model that is critical to message delay, and an influence of the transport coding on such traffic types and on the message delay jitter. Our research shows that the transport coding can be used not only for decreasing the average message delay but for decreasing the message delay jitter.
