This paper describes an approach to building a high-quality mobile
telemedicine system that overcomes the limitations of individual
public wireless data networks. Public wireless data channels do not
have the capacity to handle the high-bandwidth video needed for
applications such as remote evaluation of trauma and stroke patients.
Network striping allows us to aggregate multiple physical channels to
meet the bandwidth requirements for the video. We have developed
flexible network-striping software middleware, and are building a
telemedicine system using that middleware. Our approach uses existing
communications infrastructure and conventional-off-the-shelf
components, making the system easy to deploy.
