Virtual reality headsets have been in a great demand in the past years due to the immersive experience it can now provide to the users. An immersive experience of high quality, however, requires a high bandwidth connection. The latest generation of these headsets support wireless connectivity and rely on a battery to power the headset. With advancements in 5G technology, soon these headsets would be able to connect to the network directly. To provide a similar immersive and uninterrupted experience to the users, the headsets would need to take into account the intermittent behavior of the wireless channel.
