Abstract

At present, 5G has become the upcoming generation of wireless communication systems. The 5G network intends to offer the users with higher data transfer rates along with low latency in addition, and it also affords highly meaningful and adapted services regarding the users together with their knowledge about the services desired. In recent days, the role of video streaming services (VSSs) has turned into a significant part of human’s daily life. Nevertheless, the previous video streaming applications and services (VASs) developments are typically in the long-term evolution network (LTE) along with wireless network (WN). And in the 5G network, certain articles study the VSS quality analysis methodology. The quality of experience (QoE) structure meant for video services in the 5G network is being surveyed in this research. After that, the HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS) solution is being discussed, which is considered as the leading methodology for streaming videos in the 5G networks. Next to that, in software defined networking (SDN)/network functions virtualization (NFV), the major components are summarized in addition, the current projects, standardization actions, the use cases pertained to SDN/NFV, together with other rising applications are outlined. The QoE framework’s complications along with possibilities in 5G are also illustrated in this research work.
