As mobile data transmission technology developing, the mobile device users’ demand on video is increasing sharply, such as online chatting, live broadcast and video conferencing. BATS codes is a new type high transmission efficiency network coding proposed base on the principle of fountain codes and linear network coding. This project focus on investigating the real-time video transmission capability of BATS codes. In this project, 3 nodes transmission system are implemented, BATS codes encoding/decoding is simulated by C++ programs, the video source is captured from webcam by using Linux v4l2 library, video encoding/decoding is performed by using FFmpeg software and decoded video is played on Opencv function window.
