This research investigates video streaming formats, encoding and compression techniques towards the development and simulation of a rate adaptation model to reduce packet loss. The thrust of this research aimed at enriching and enhancing the quality of video streaming over the wireless network. We developed both mathematical models which were thereafter simulated to depict the need for advancing the existing solution for packet scheduling towards recovery from packet loss and error handling in video streaming.enQuantity of Service (QOS)Adaptive Frame RateVideo StreamingArticle
