VIDEO QUALITY MONITORING

摘要

A method for monitoring video quality transmitted over a mobile network, comprising tapping into a mobile network traffic stream organizing the tapped network traffic into at least one individual video session associated with a single user; determining a video quality parameter for the at least one individual video session wherein the video quality parameter is at least one of packet jitter growth, packet loss, instantaneous flow rate balance (IFRB), delay between packets; a jitter statistic; a total time required to receive all packets needed to fully assemble a segment; a statistic of errors in key frames; aggregating context information for the at least one individual video session wherein context information includes at least one of cell tower, smart node, serving gateway node, user, subscriber level, device type, application, and content provider; and transmitting aggregated context information and at least one video quality parameter to a video quality server.
