Abstract:
Systems, devices, methods, and computer readable media are provided for distributing data with multi-tiered encoding. For example, a system for transmission of data streams to endpoints is provided that includes: encoders, each encoder configured to encode a data stream according to at least one encoding parameter; virtual transmitters organized into groups based on at least one transmission characteristic; each group of virtual transmitters configured to receive encoded data from an associated one of the encoders; each virtual transmitter of the plurality of virtual transmitters configured to transmit the encoded data to an associated one of the plurality of endpoints; and at least one controller configured to monitor transmission characteristics of the plurality of virtual transmitters and to adjust membership of the virtual transmitters in the plurality of groups based on the monitored transmission characteristics. The system may be further configured for synchronization, uni/bi-directional communication, etc.

Claim (Index 3):
The system of  claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to adjust the membership of the transmitters in the plurality of groups, the at least one processor being configured to:\n upon a determination that a group membership adjustment condition has been triggered, determine a new group for a target transmitter that is currently a member of a current group, the new group based on the monitored transmission characteristics; determine whether a current frame number being processed by the current group matches a new frame number being processed by the new group; generate and transmit a control signal to an encoder corresponding to the new group requesting provisioning of the target transmitter as a member of the new group; request a key frame from the encoder corresponding to the new group; and upon a determination that the current frame number does not match the new frame number, generate or transmit one or more control signals to synchronize the target transmitter to the encoder corresponding to the new group.
