The Effect of Erasure Coding on the Burstiness of Packet Loss
share
The perceived quality of real-time media delivered over IP networks depends on both the rate and burstiness of packet loss. In this paper, we develop a new mathematical model for the residual burstiness of loss under erasure coding. We derive the expected number of consecutive losses in a burst as a function of erasure coding parameters and the network loss probability assuming a Bernoulli model for network losses.
