Abstract

Due to the growing popularity of Internet of People (IoP) and its impacts on human activity, it has quickly become an important research field and hot subject. Since one purpose of IoP is to connect people to people, personal live video delivery that has been popular recently can also be regarded as an important application of IoP. For improving the video quality of video communication services, Raptor code has been adopted in various broadband communication systems. In this paper, we propose a systematic Raptor code decoder based on the group parameters for a group of encoding symbols. For a Raptor code application that can frequently use one or several fixed source block lengths (i.e., the number of source symbols in a source block), we could produce the corresponding group parameters in advance and use them to decode the received encoding symbols more efficiently. For personal live video delivery scenario based on the IPTV delivery, the simulation results show that our decoder is faster than the conventional Raptor code decoder which is adopted by the DVB and 3GPP specifications.
