Smart Delay Module For In-Vehicle Live IPTV Streaming

Due to the emergence of new trends in the automotive industry, such as autonomous vehicles, there is an increasing emphasis on the driver and passengers' activities as well as on their user experience in such vehicles. One of the main forms of in-vehicle passenger entertainment is infotainment devices that allow them to stream media. Since on-the-go clients do not have a consistent Internet connection quality, streaming live media in such conditions becomes challenging. In this paper, we give an overview of the challenges regarding live media streaming in the no-signal area. We propose a solution for these challenges in the form of extension of the existing architecture of the media subsystem for clients on the move with a smart delay module that provides improvements to Quality of Experience (QoE) and Quality of Service (QoS) for the live media stream while driving.
