Abstract

This paper proposes an incentive-based bandwidth allocation for scalable streaming in P2P networks. It is modeled as decentralized dynamic auction games, in which the peers sell and bid the upload bandwidth for the maximum individual benefit. With the unique characteristic of SVC, the content-aware prioritization of SVC is imposed on the underlying bandwidth auction in order to avoid bandwidth wastage and improve the overall video quality at all peers. Also, an incentive mechanism is employed to resolve free-riding issue. Finally, the performance of the proposed scheme is verified by the simulation results.
