VIDEO STREAMING PATTERN DETECTION AND BURST PREDICTION

An apparatus for data processing and related non-transitory computer-readable medium are provided. In the method, the apparatus computes a burst threshold for a data stream. The burst threshold is associated with a throughput of the data stream. The apparatus further identifies a set of bursts in the data stream based on the burst threshold, and detect a pattern in the data stream based on the set of bursts. The apparatus further estimates at least one subsequent burst in the data stream based on the pattern and the burst threshold, and outputs an indication of the at least one subsequent burst in the data stream. The method enables a device to predict one or more future data bursts based on characteristics of existing data. The predicted data bursts allow the transmission resource and power to be adaptively arranged to significantly reduce power consumption and improve transmission efficiency.
