Performance Evaluation Framework for Video Applications in Mobile Networks
Alexander Klein, Jirka Klaue · 2009
We present a framework for performance evaluation and optimization of video applications in mobile multi hop networks. We focus on the perceived video quality depending on the simulated mobility model, traffic pattern, retransmission strategy, and the configuration of the routing protocol. Moreover, the functionality of the framework is demonstrated by evaluating the performance of a video surveillance application with multiple mobile sources and sinks. The application is designed for exchanging multimedia content, e.g. audio and video streams, in wireless networks where all nodes are highly mobile.
