Abstract

The spate in popularity of multimedia applications has led to the need for optimization of bandwidth allocation and usage in telecommunication networks. Modern telecommunication networks should by their definition be able to maintain the quality of different applications with different Quality of Service (QoS) levels. QoS requirements are generally dependent on the parameters of network and application layers of the OSI model. At the application layer QoS depends on factors such as resolution, bit rate, frame rate, video type, audio codecs, etc. At the network layer, distortions such as delay, jitter, packet loss, etc. are introduced. This paper presents simulation results of modeling video streaming over wireless communications networks. The differences in spatial and time characteristics of the different subject groups were taken into account. Analysis of the influence of bit error rate (BER) and bit rate for video quality is also presented. Simulation showed that different video subject groups affect the perceived quality differently when transmitted over networks. We show conclusively that in a transmission network with a small error probabilities (BER = 10-6, BER = 10-5), the minimum bit rate (128 kbps) guarantees an acceptable video quality, corresponding to MOS > 3 for all types of frames.
