Abstract
There is provided a method for providing edge node (110) fault management and bandwidth, (BW), control for transmission of a data stream in a packet-based network. The method comprises adaptively transmitting a data stream (DS) by controlling an outgoing data stream being transmitted to one or more client devices (151, 152, 153) by analyzing at least one data stream characteristics of a corresponding received data stream (DS1, DS2, DS3) of the one or more receiving client devices (151, 152, 153), and providing a transmission strategy for the outgoing data stream based on said analyzed data stream characteristics. Thereby accurate adjustment of consumed (BW) and an associated recovery scheme, i.e. FEC and/or retransmission, to maintain highest achievable performance when it comes to video quality and also affect on other services, are provided.
