Modern web relies on real-time applications such as conference calls (e.g., Google Meet), real-time collaboration, cloud gaming, etc. All these applications use WebRTC for real-time media transport. WebRTC is a set of tools (e.g., browser APIs) and technologies (e.g., protocols like RTP or STUN/TURN). The WebRTC architecture is complex. To simplify the real-time media transport architecture, w3c introduced WebTransport. WebTransport uses modern and efficient protocols (HTTP3/QUIC) and methods. These design choices makes WebTransport fitting for current and future infocommunication systems (e.g., cloud, 5G, 6G, etc.). The task of the Student is to contribute to the ongoing research and development work aimed at understanding, measuring, evaluating WebTransport, in close collaboration with our industrial partner, Ericsson.
