Nowadays, the research study community visualizes a standard shift that is going to put the focus on Quality of Experience metrics, which relate directly to complete consumer satisfaction. Yet, determining QoE coming from QoS sizes is a daunting job that powerful Software Defined Network operators are currently able to tackle through artificial intelligence strategies. In this paper, our experts pay attention to a few essential QoE factors, and we to begin with proposing a Bayesian Network design to anticipate re-buffering proportion. This paper suggested a structure for modeling mobile network QoE, making use of the vast records analytics approach. The planned platform explains the method of estimating or forecasting perceived QoE based upon the datasets obtained or collected from the mobile network to enable the mobile network operators efficiently to deal with the network functionality as well as supply the individuals an adequate mobile Internet QoE.

The increase in the usage of different mobile internet applications can cause deterioration in the mobile network performance. Such deterioration often declines the performance of the mobile network services that can influence the mobile Internet user’s experience, which can make the internet users switch between different mobile network operators to get good user experience. In this case, the success of mobile network operators primarily depends on the ability to ensure good quality of experience (QoE), which is a measure of users’ perceived quality of mobile Internet service. Traditionally, QoE is usually examined in laboratory experiments to enable a fixed contextual factor among the participants even though the results derived from these laboratory experiments presented an estimated mean opinion score representing perceived QoE. The use of user experience dataset involving time and location gathered from the mobile network traffic for modelling perceived QoE is still limited in the literature. The mobile Internet user experience dataset involving the time and location constituted in the mobile network can be used by the mobile network operators to make data-driven decisions to deal with disruptions observed in the network performance and provide an optimal solution based on the insights derived from the user experience data. Therefore, this paper proposed a framework for modelling mobile network QoE using the big data analytics approach. The proposed framework describes the process of estimating or predicting perceived QoE based on the datasets obtained or gathered from the mobile network to enable the mobile network operators effectively to manage the network performance and provide the users a satisfactory mobile Internet QoE.

Transmission of video traffic over the Internet has grown exponentially in the past few years with no sign of waning. This increasing demand for video services has changed user expectation of quality. Various mechanisms have been proposed to optimise Quality of Experience (QoE) of end user's video. Studying these approaches are necessary for new methods to be proposed or combination of existing ones to be tailored. We discuss challenges facing the optimisation of QoE for video traffic in this paper. It surveys and classifies these mechanisms based on their functions. The limitation of each of them is identified and future directions are highlighted.

The rapid proliferation of user devices with access to mobile broadband has been a challenge from both the operation and deployment points of view. With the incorporation of new services with high demand for bandwidth such as video in 4K, it has been deemed necessary to expand the existing capacity by including new bands, among which the unlicensed 5-GHz band is a very promising candidate. The operation of future 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) mobile network standards deployments in this band implies the coexistence with other technologies such as WiFi, which is widespread. In this context, the provision of Quality of Service (QoS) or Quality of Experience (QoE) becomes an essential asset and is a challenge that has yet to be overcome. In this sense, 3GPP has proposed a traffic prioritization method based on the Listen Before Talk access parameters, defining a series of priorities. However, it does not specify how to make use of them, and even less so in potentially conflicting situations. This paper assesses the end-to-end performance of downlink unlicensed channel priorities in dense scenarios via implementing a novel simulation setup in terms of both multi-service performance and coexistence.

The scope of this work is to present a holistic approach in quality of service (QoS) and quality of experience (QoE) characterization and prediction in modern mobile communication networks. Analytically, multi radio access technologies have been deployed in order to deliver mobile services to quality demanded consumers. Quality of Experience (QoE) parameters describe the End-to-End (E2E) quality as experienced by the mobile users. These parameters are difficult to be measured and quantified. System Quality of Service (SQoS) parameters are metrics that are closely related to the network status, and defined from the viewpoint of the service provider rather than the service user. Moreover, E2E Service Quality of Service (ESQoS) parameters describe the QoS of the services and they are obtained directly from the QoE parameters by mapping them into parameters more relevant to network operators, service providers and mobile users. A useful technique for mobile network planning and optimization is to build reliable quality estimation models for mobile voice and video telephony service.
