In this paper, we develop an analytical framework to compute the Quality-of-Experience (QoE) metrics of video streaming in wireless networks. Our framework takes into account the system dynamics that arises due to the arrival and departure of flows. We also consider the possibility of users abandoning the system on account of poor QoE. Considering the coexistence of multiple services such as video streaming and elastic flows, we use a Markov chain based analysis to compute the user QoE metrics: probability of starvation, prefetching delay, average video quality and bitrate switching. Our simulation results validate the accuracy of our model and describe the impact of scheduler at eNB on the QoE metrics.
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.
