Our visitor from New Zealand

November 21, 2016

Ulrich Speidel is visiting us for the next three weeks. He is a senior lecturer at the University of Auckland in the Department of Computer Science. He is currently involved in optimizing Internet connectivity on satellite links in the Pacific, specifically in the Cook Islands, Niue and Tuvalu. The research applies cutting-edge concepts from information theory to practice, both on site and in Ulrich’s Auckland laboratory with its dedicated simulator facility.

Ulrich is using RLNC tunneling software to optimize the network flow over satellite. The effect of his research will result in much more stable connections via satellite which in the end makes it easier for ISPs to provide internet via satellite to more remote areas in the world. The software uses network coding to conceal congestion-related packet losses at satellite input queues from TCP.

    This week IETF 109 is being held as a virtual online conference (the IETF is the standardization organization for the protocols used on the Internet). This time we presented some of our findings related to low latency use-cases and ECC/FEC coding.

  • 29 Jul 2020 | Rely Version 2 is out!

    We just released version 2 of our “Rely” solution which implements modern ECC/FEC to allow low-latency and efficient recovery of packet loss e.g. for video streaming or other latency sensitive applications.
