  • Patent number: 9549342
    Abstract: In a method for controlling congestion within a cell of a wireless network providing mobile HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS), a mobile HAS client in the cell delays a request for a next HAS segment of a HAS media stream for a delay time interval in response to a notification of congestion within the cell. The mobile HAS client calculates a reduced bitrate for the next HAS segment, and requests the next HAS segment at the reduced bitrate after expiration of the delay time interval. The reduced bitrate is reduced relative to a bitrate for a previous HAS segment of the HAS media stream.

  • Publication number: 20130227106
    Abstract: A video session management capability provides network-directed, client-assisted management of real-time mobile video sessions of video clients of mobile devices. The video session management capability is provided using a mobile device accessing a Wireless Service Provider (WSP) network and a video management server associated with the WSP network. The mobile device includes a video client and a video control engine. The video control engine collects client information at the mobile device and provides the client information to the video management server. The video management server receives the client information, obtains network information associated with the WSP network, determines video session management information, and propagates the video session management information toward the mobile device.
