Making informed decisions… • Requirements for QoE data • Making QoE data available within industry Based on case studies with • Network operators • Equipment manufacturers • Service providers
Requirements for QoE data • Provide guidelines on key topics • Provide tutorials • Link QoS and QoE variables • Provide QoE data for different guideline users • Provide information about user behaviour that is feasible to apply

Requirements for QoE data • Provide guidelines on key topics • Provide tutorials • Link QoS and QoE variables • Provide QoE data for different guideline users • Provide information about user behaviour that is feasible to apply
Example QoE measure IF Communication Situation USING Service Prescription WITH Technical Parameters THEN Usage Outcome • Prevents adequate communication • Is usable • Offers acceptable quality • Offers good quality • Offers very good quality
Making QoE data available within industry ETSI Guide Web-based system
Conclusions • Service developers want end-user data • Much data not available • Tutorial support required • Standardisation bodies well positioned to disseminate QoE data • ETSI STF284 • http://portal.etsi.org/stfs/hf/STF284.asp Please visit the web-based system & provide your feedback!
