Performance Measurement of Video Streaming in UMTS
Networks. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Dec 2008, Pages: 128
UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System),
the third generation of mobile
data services, introduces a new wireless,
state-of-the-art technology and thus much
higher data speeds to mobile and portable wireless
devices. Streaming Media is one
of the applications that takes major advantage of the
new technology due to higher
bit rates available.
The objective of this book is to introduce a high
quality video streaming
system for an Internet Service Provider (ISP). The
main focus will be quality criteria
for video streaming that can easily be handled.
Therefore, a quality assurance tool
was developed which measures the quality of a
transmitted video stream. The tool
enables the ISP to adapt video encoding parameters
for the underlying third
generation network and to evaluate video playback
capabilities of third generation
mobile phones.
The achieved results provide essential input for the
ISP to adapt the encoding
profiles for UMTS terminals. Moreover, the tool helps
to obtain valuable statistics of
network traffic due to real-time data transmission.
