In this paper, a novel QoE (Quality of Experience) optimization mechanism is proposed for the coexistence between LTE and WiFi networks, where traffic offloading is enabled from LTE to WiFi. Firstly, the throughput models of LTE and WiFi are analyzed, respectively. And then the users' satisfaction function is introduced to measure QoE. An optimal problem that maximizing the QoE of LTE network with guaranteeing the QoE of WiFi network, is formulated and solved by transformation and simplification. Simulation results indicate that traffic offloading can greatly improve the QoE of LTE network.
