Abstract :
In this paper, we study the adequacy of applying peer-to- peer techniques to mobile networks by conducting a series of experiments using smart phones as peers. We measure important parameters, such as jitter and packet losses, in static and dynamic scenarios, focusing on a video streaming service. Finally, based on the results obtained, we discuss the feasibility of these applications.
