Abstract
The rapid growth of internet promotes evolution of network applications. As different network application has different set of requirements for network technology, many protocols have been developed. Most of these protocols overlap and are redundant in function, which result in lower performance. This paper presents an IPv6 QoS-based simple streaming transport protocol (SSTP), which aims at next generation networks and takes into account of the feature of the multimedia stream transmission. The protocol has been implemented and deployed in a multimedia stream playing system. This paper not only introduces the background and design methodology of SSTP, but also describes SSTP in detail. At last, this article compares the performance of SSTP and RTP/RTCP, and gives the consideration about improvement of SSTP.
