Abstract

With the proliferation of multimedia services, Quality of Experience (QoE) has gained a lot of attention. QoE ties together the users’ needs and expectations to multimedia application and network performance. However, in various Internet of Things (IoT) applications such as healthcare, surveillance systems, traffic monitoring, etc., human feedback can be limited or infeasible. Moreover, for immersive augmented and virtual reality, as well as other mulsemedia applications, the evaluation in terms of quality cannot only focus on the sight and hearing senses. Therefore, the traditional QoE definition and approaches for evaluating multimedia services might not be suitable for the IoT paradigm, and more quality metrics are required in order to evaluate the quality in IoT. In this paper, we review existing quality definitions, quality influence factors (IFs) and assessment approaches for IoT. This paper also introduces challenges in the area of quality assessment for the IoT paradigm.
