Perceptual QoE based resource allocation for mobile 3D video communications

Abstract

This paper suggests a power and bandwidth efficient resource allocation approach for mobile networks based on consumer's perception of 3D video. We simulate a mobile 3D video transmission through which we identify the correlation between receiver's signal-to-noise ratio and perceived quality. Our QoE-based approach is shown to save up to 33.13% in power and grant up to 50% more data bits for transmission, compared to QoS-based techniques. © 2014 IEEE.
