HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS) as the leading technology for video streaming today. QoE may be degraded due to:
§
Inaccessible services
§
Initial loading delays, stalling events
§
Reduced video resolution / quality switching
Bitrate / quality level
t
Initial loading delay Stalling Quality switches

Distributed quality monitoring system
§
Fully automated probes across Germany
§
Measure video streams and website calls, directly from the browser, like a customer would do
§
Different KPIs and KQIs measured:
§
DNS times, ping
§
Upload and download speed tests
§
Video loading times
§
Video quality according to P.1203
… and many more

What is the customer’s video QoE for a given bandwidth?
§
Not universally answerable!

Deutsche Telekom as a leading provider in Germany
§
QoE as an important measure for network quality
§
Development of QoE metrics like P.1203
§
Focus on QoE in monitoring systems:
§
Client-centric monitoring as complement to network-centric solutions
§
Predicting QoE from network parameters
OUTLOOK
