Real time assuring QoE in the lowest OSI/ISO layers during delivering of IPTV services

This paper compares the values of data link layer QoS (Quality of Service) indicators of several access lines, which can serve as a measure of the physical link quality or QoPh (Quality of Physical Layer), in real environment without reference video signal (No Reference), during the delivering of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) multicast services to multiple users. It also focuses on the fact that an increase in channel capacity reduces the number of signal degradation indicators in the data link layer, because it increases the resistance of useful information on the interference. The paper proves the fact that at the same time, improving the physical layer conditions, the values of network QoS indicators, such as packet loss or delay, is reduced which affects the final grade at the end-user QoE (Quality of Experience) of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) services.
