Abstract

Small cell technology is expected to be an integral part of future 5G networks in order to meet the increasingly high user demands for traffic volume, frequency efficiency, and energy and cost reductions. Small cell networks can play an important role in enhancing the Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE) in m-health applications, and in particular, in medical video streaming. In this paper, we propose a hybrid medical QoE prediction model based on a Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) that correlates the network QoS (NQoS) and application QoS (AQoS) parameters to the QoE. The model is tested on the transmission of medical ultrasound video over small cell technology. The results show that the predicted QoE scores of our proposed model have a high correlation with the subjective scores of medical experts.
