QoS and QoE in wireless multicast communication

Abstract

During last decade the deployment of multimedia and real-time applications over the network has grown with large interest. There are some parameters like service level agreements and quality of service such as delay, jitter, and packet loss on which the progress of these multimedia and real time applications depend. Though Multicasting is UDP based, but it is a very efficient group communication technique, it enhances efficiency by controlling network traffic and by reducing server and CPU load. Multicast optimizes performance by eliminating traffic redundancy and it is also helpful in distributed applications as well. Multicasting is a novel area of research in which broad scope of development is possible. In this paper, we are working on Quality of Services and Quality of Experiences and will provide an adaptive approach for data packet in terms of jitter by using the queuing mechanism. Our goal is to improve the performance of Multicast communication. The performance of the Multicast communication is calculated in terms of the throughput, packet loss, link utilization, delay and mean opinion score.
