Abstract

The aim of this article is to explain benefits of the simulation model for objective QoE (Quality of Experience) video evaluation in order to find similarities with real IPTV (Internet Protocol TeleVision) system distribution in a DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) network. In DSL networks, it is known that packet losses appear suddenly and might have a "burst" character, at any time during IPTV service delivery. In addition, these packet losses usually appear in groups and lead to huge degradation of the IPTV video service, which decreases a customer's QoE guaranteed level. Hence, estimation of this degradation in an access network is crucial and this paper explains a simulation model based on SSIM (Structural Similarity Index) analysis, which can be used as one perceptive video quality assessment by imitating a real environment with packet losses. To check this, we compared simulation model cases with the real ones in IPTV video distributed over DSL and exposed to different packet loss appearances.
