A Validated Analytical Model for Availability Prediction of IPTV Services in VANETs

Abstract: In vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs), besides the original applications typically related to traffic safety, we nowadays can observe an increasing trend toward infotainment applications, such as IPTV services. Quality of experience (QoE), as observed by the end users of IPTV, is highly important to guarantee adequate user acceptance for the service. In IPTV, QoE is mainly determined by the availability of TV channels for the users. This paper presents an efficient and rather generally applicable analytical mo… Show more

“…In this way, the approach to implement a third lambda configuration is to broadcast all traditional television channels using the additional down-link at 1550 nm, freeing the corresponding bandwidth in the 1310 nm and 1490 nm links. Because the RF signal sent in the third lambda allows only very simple (i.e., spectrum inversion) or even no encryption, it is not suitable to transmit premium contents subject to subscription, which are still sent by IP using the conventional up-and down-links at 1310 nm and 1490 nm [15]. Figure 2 shows a detailed scheme of the structure of a GPON to implement triple-play services using the third lambda.…”

“…Starting from the fact that in IPTV, the main influencing factor of QoE for users is TV channels availability, Wolfinger et al introduced a new model to measure the QoE in [69]. It is an analytical model that predicts the blocking probability of TV channels for channel-switching-induced and handover-induced blocking events in IPTV services in VANETs.…”

“…In IPTV, QoE is mainly determined by the availability of TV channels for the users. In [5], the author presents an efficient and rather generally applicable analytical model that allows one to predict the blocking probability of TV channels, both for channel-switching-induced, as well as for handover-induced blocking events. We present the successful validation of the model by means of simulation, and we introduce a new measure for QoE.…”
