A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 8680 Title: Forward Error Correction (FEC) Framework Extension to Sliding Window Codes Author: V. Roca, A. Begen Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: January 2020 Mailbox: vincent.roca@inria.fr, ali.begen@networked.media Pages: 19 Updates: RFC 6363 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-tsvwg-fecframe-ext-08.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8680 DOI: 10.17487/RFC8680 RFC 6363 describes a framework for using Forward Error Correction (FEC) codes to provide protection against packet loss. The framework supports applying FEC to arbitrary packet flows over unreliable transport and is primarily intended for real-time, or streaming, media. However, FECFRAME as per RFC 6363 is restricted to block FEC codes. This document updates RFC 6363 to support FEC codes based on a sliding encoding window, in addition to block FEC codes, in a backward-compatible way. During multicast/broadcast real-time content delivery, the use of sliding window codes significantly improves robustness in harsh environments, with less repair traffic and lower FEC-related added latency. This document is a product of the Transport Area Working Group Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. This announcement is sent to the IETF-Announce and rfc-dist lists.
