Abstract

In heterogeneous environment, different services have different QoE requirements. The purpose of this paper is to identify the characteristics of emerging typical mobile multimedia applications including video services, audio services and burst data services. For each use case, we analyze the QoE test requirement. This analysis will offer the important guideline for design of the system architecture for QoE test. Furthermore, the bottlenecks of existing wireless access technologies are discussed.
