Abstract
This paper proposes scheduling policies to optimize QoE for VoD
over fading channel
QoE is measured by the duration of video playback interruption, in
particular in heavy traffic regime
First they consider ON-OFF channel, using a special scheduling
policy
A new policy is finally used over a fading channel and the results
Introduction
According to the latest research of Cisco, video services will
occupy three-fourths of global mobile traffic in near future
So, new scheduling policies are necessary to serve an increasing
number of users
New policy goal: find a good compromise between initial
prefetching delay and playback buffer emptiness
Here, the analysis considers the long-term average performance
and also the short term QoE performance.
Introduction
The analysis starts from special case of ON-OFF channel
It continues in the case of general fading channel
Characterize the capacity region for QoE and propose the
scheduling policy, that can achieve every interior point in the
capacity region
Finally, there is a comparation of the proposed policy with three
popular policies
System Model
System Model
Let be the total number of video interruption in time t.
Def: A video streaming system is said stabilizable if there is a
scheduling policy such
that:
This will happen if and only if the throughput of each client is at
least equal to
Studying the stability it is the same of studying the reachable
Simulation Results
In the paper was made a comparison with popular policies using a
simulator ns-2
Simulation conditions:
Time to transmit a packet and receive an ACK is 500s
Packet dimension are various
Frame rate 30 fps
Every client reproduces a frame every 66 timeslot
Simulation Results
The policy HDR is compared with:
1. Max Weight Policy (MW)
2. Weighted Proportional-Fair (WPF)
3. NOVA Algorithm
.The first step is made considering a system of 20 clients in heavy
traffic conditions
.In the second step they equally divide the clients in two classes
Conclusion
In this paper there is a study on dynamic behavior of QoE under
heavy-traffic conditions
There are some proposals of scheduling policies for optimizing QoE
The simulations shows that the new proposal (HDR) has much
better performance respect the existing policies and it is a valid
solution for future implementations
