Abstract

Mobile TV started almost 30 years ago as a research project, but only just recently TV-like services for mobile users on handheld devices have become reality. In this work, we want to give an overview of both the history and current advances in this highly active field of research, including unicast and broadcast media streaming over wireless channels and efficient forward error correction (FEC) mechanisms at the application layer.
