Abstract:According to the problem that the network traffic status is not effective in the adaptive video transmission algorithm based on transmission speed, a new adaptive wireless transmission algorithm of UAV video based on the buffer occupancy is proposed. By calculating the buffer occupancy of the transmit buffer to judge the ability of network transmission, the next acquisition rate is adjust, or the compression code rate before adjusting the next acquisition rate is adjust, the maximum transmission rate is set to maximum.Compared with the linear method to increase the transmission rate based on the traditional algorithm, the sending rate and code rate is adjusted based on the duty ratio in this algorithm, the average sending rate increased 0.25 Mbit/s, bandwidth utilizationrate increased by 8%,the maximize the data transmission and coding is realized in the network under the different network, the utilize the transmission status of the network is effectively, so as to ensure the real-time, reliability and data integrity of the video data transmission.
