  • Method using adaptive-bit-rate playlists for dynamic server capacity and broadband handovers
    Patent number: 11792454
    Abstract: A method of using HLS (or DASH) server emulation to implement dynamic server capacity using point-to-multipoint or point-to-point Internet communication protocols. In a wireless handover setting, this system utilizes network address translators running on distributed gateways or tower infrastructure. The system uses adaptive bit rate emulated servers to effectively update and resynthesize playlist files for dynamic adaptive-bit-rate HLS playback.
