Quality of Experience (QoE) and Network Performance Modelling for Multimedia Traffic

Journal of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data | Vol 1, Issue 1

Table 1. Comparison Between QoS and QoE Parameters

AspectQuality of Service (QoS)Quality of Experience (QoE)
DefinitionObjective measure of network performance using technical parameters.Subjective assessment of user satisfaction with the service.
Measurement BasisNetwork metrics (delay, jitter, packet loss, throughput).User perception metrics (MOS, SSIM, VMAF, buffering rate).
Layer of EvaluationNetwork layer and transport layer.Application layer and user layer.
Primary FocusEnsuring network reliability and performance.Ensuring user satisfaction and perceived service quality.
Influencing FactorsNetwork congestion, bandwidth, packet delay variation.Content quality, playback smoothness, device type, user expectations.
Measurement ToolsNetwork analyzers, SNMP, Wireshark, QoS probes.Subjective testing, ITU-T standards, QoE estimation models.
