Abstract-The LTE standard has been developed for highbandwidth mobile access for today's data-heavy applications. With broadband cellular available already from the UMTS system, users are expecting the LTE network to provide high quality communication. To ensure the quality and correctness of complex systems of LTE, it is important to evaluate the behavior of traffic on a LTE network in relation to UMTS. In this paper, LTE and UMTS measurements on video traffic were performed in a real environment, allowing for greater development, and understanding of network traffic performance.
Abstract-The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) introduced the new radio access technology, LTE (Long Term Evolution) and LTE-Advanced, which has the capability to provide larger bandwidth and low latencies on a wireless network in order to fulfill the demand of Users' Equipment (UEs) with acceptable Quality of Service (QoS). One of the data-heavy applications that has exploded on the market is Video. This calls for accurate modeling of video traffic. To ensure the quality and correctness of complex systems with Video traffic, it is important to evaluate the behavior of the traffic in the heterogeneous environment. This paper presents measurements on LTE Video traffic which were performed in a real environment. We derived a semi-Markov model which accurately reproduces the statistics of composite Video measurements over LTE network.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
