Quality Adaptation Layer

The task of the Quality Adaptation Layer is to serve as a communication layer between Adaptive Codecs and the E2E Transport protocol.

The estimated available bandwidth, RTT, Jitter and Loss Rate are the input of this sub-block, which are passed by the E2E protocol. Based on the charateristics of the codecs this module is able to set the correct parameters in the scalable codecs in order to adapt the quality to match the available bandwidth and pursue congestion avoidance and packet loss.
