WINDOWS STREAMING MEDIA PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS ON A IEEE 802.11g RESIDENTIAL NETWORK
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a performance evaluation of Microsoft Windows Media Streaming (WMS) on an IEEE 802.11g home network. Empirical measurements are used to determine the viability of streaming High Definition (HD) and high quality video over a wireless residential network using currently available multimedia streaming software. User experience is evaluated using visual testbed observations and performance criteria that include playback time, transmission data rate, playout buffer fill percentages and wireless frame losses. While the experiments show that 8.1 Mbps HD content is not currently playable with acceptable quality using a WMS server over a wireless LAN (WLAN), this investigation demonstrates that WMS services can provide high quality streaming services over a residential WLAN.

Cross-Layer Measurement on an IEEE 802.11g Wireless Network Supporting MPEG-2 Video Streaming Applications in the Presence of Interference
The performance of wireless local area networks supporting video streaming applications, based on MPEG-2 video codec, in the presence of interference is here dealt with. IEEE 802.11g standard wireless networks, that do not support QoS in according with IEEE 802.11e standard, are, in particular, accounted for and Bluetooth signals, additive white Gaussian noise, and competitive data traffic are ...
متن کاملFPS Game Performance in Wi-Fi Networks
Multi-player online games (MOGs) have become increasingly popular on today’s Internet. Meanwhile, the IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) wireless networks have been widely used. We study how well an underlying 802.11g network supports a first-person-shooter (FPS) game, often considered the most demanding MOG in terms of network performance. We measure the latency and loss ratio performance experienced by the ...
متن کاملComparison of Throughput with a Perceived Video Quality Metric as Performance Indicators of Streamed Video in IEEE 802.11g/a
In this paper we compare the use of two metrics that could be used as indicators of the quality of streamed video in a wireless home network based on 802.11. One of the metrics is throughput which is a traditional performance metric. The other metric is based on the perceived quality of a video clip. The results demonstrate that the throughput metric overestimates the perceived quality of video...
