A stereo client using open SVC decoder extensions: QoE performance evaluation

This paper presents a stereo client within an end-to-end video communication ecosystem. The key characteristics of the stereo 3D Client are the following: “Open SVC Decoder” extensions to handle and parse on-the-fly RTP flows for both streams (Left-Right View), dynamic jitter buffer management, 3D Synchronization between the two views and Error concealment. QoE measurements have been carried out to evaluate the robustness of the Client within an end-to-end video communication platform. It is shown that stereo video quality is substantially higher when using the error concealment techniques.
