Abstract

A medium streaming distribution system reduces effects of packet loss in a network before the packet reaches radio base station. A medium distribution device for packet-transmits via the base station, a medium stream to the network by a real time transmission protocol. A packet analyzer monitors the packet arriving at the radio base station and transmits feedback information associated with loss of a packet to the medium distribution device. Based on the feedback from a relay device and a terminal device of the medium stream, the transmission rates from the medium distribution device to the relay device and from the relay device to the terminal device are obtained to provide a greater transmission rate in a surplus band for re-transmission or a forward error correction.
