Abstract
YouTube video streaming is one of the most popular
and most demanding services in cellular networks. Thus,
operators are concerned about the quality of the streaming
delivered by their networks and would like to monitor the
Quality of Experience (QoE) of the end users. In this work,
we conduct a field study of mobile YouTube video streaming,
in which both network flow parameters and application-layer
streaming parameters were monitored, and present the characteristics
of current mobile YouTube streaming. The impact of
both approaches is investigated showing that monitoring network
parameters is not sufficient to directly infer the resulting QoE.
In contrast, the streaming parameters, which can be obtained
from application-layer monitoring, show high correlations to the
subjectively experienced quality, and thus, are better suited for
QoE monitoring.
