Abstract
A system, method and apparatus to dynamically tune parameters impacting bitrate selection to control thereby client bandwidth usage are described. Controlling client bandwidth usage can be performed by instantiating an adaptive rate determining algorithm (A-RDA) function associated with a mobile client, where this A-RDA function being responsive to a rate control profile and client channel information (e.g., channel condition information) to select for said client available content segments having an appropriate bit-rate.
