The focus of this survey is to study the protocols, mechanisms, and the latest standards proposed in the literature for improving the performance and quality of video content in multipath and multihomed overlay networks. Multipath is a broader term, but in the context of this survey, we define multipath as enhancing network routing technique by using various paths that are not necessarily completely disjoint. Multipath can furnish a variety of advantages such as reliability,connection persistence, increased perceived throughput and load balancing. On the other hand, multihoming is the ability to use multiple network interfaces when connecting to the Internet to increase reliability, resilience, and performance. Most existing surveys are specialized in one specific domain area related to multipath or multihoming. This study covers the research proposals at the different layers/sublayers of an overlay network from transport to the application and extends to cover the latest technologies like machine learning, Fog and Mobile Edge computing, VR 360 video, and the Internet of Multimedia Things (IoMT). As such, our work tries to be as comprehensive as possible to relate multipath and multihoming research solutions for video streaming to the current and emerging video streaming technologies.

“…By adopting a multi-homing structure, MPTCP is considered to be a promising transmission technology, which can meet the requirements for specific Quality of Services (QoS) and balance real-time task utilization rate in network resources [9,10]. However, most MPTCP data scheduling algorithms and congestion control algorithms only consider transmission efficiency and fairness [7][8][9] and ignored the priority difference of data transmission caused by the complexity of data types [11]. Inspired by the above considerations, this paper presents a priorities-oriented data scheduler for multimedia multipathing mechanism that allows applications to distinguish the relatively prioritized data, ensure higher-priority data can be transmitted via a good quality path, improve the transmission performance of higher-priority data, reduce the transmission delay, and enhance the overall transmission performance for real-time streaming media services.…”

PO-MPTCP: Priorities-Oriented Data Scheduler for Multimedia Multipathing Services

With the diversified wireless network access technology and large-scale equipment of multinetwork interface devices expanding, network transmission performance for multi-homed terminals has been widely concerned by academic circles. More and more scholars have paid attention to Multipath Transmission Control Protocol (MPTCP) as one of the representative methods for studying path transmission performance. However, their studies ignore the impact of dynamic network environments on data transmission performance and seldom consider the priority of data transmission. Undoubtedly, not prioritizing packets will have a dramatic effect on the users experience in the heterogeneous networks. In this paper, we propose a novel priority-aware streaming media multipath data scheduler mechanism (PO-MPTCP) to achieve the following goals: (1) detecting the priority of all streaming media data; (2) achieving multiattribute-aware path evaluation and switching mechanism; (3) introducing a path-quality priority-driven data distribution mechanism to improve streaming multipath transmission performance. The simulation experiment shows that PO-MPTCP proposed by this paper improves the transmission performance of streaming media and reduces the transmission delay. For the result of simulation experiment, it is easy for us to find that PO-MPTCP is more efficient in data delivery than the standard MPTCP mechanism.
