A flexible monitor for assessing 3D video QoE in real-time

With the evolution of 3D technology, 3D IPTV services may prove to be a common service widely distributed by operators. So it is important that they have the necessary means to easily and inexpensively monitor the Quality of Experience (QoE) of this new service. Deployment of 3D video QoE monitors anywhere in the network will enable operators to adapt their service and network infrastructure in order to guarantee a desired QoE level, e.g., in scenarios where 3D IPTV streaming is offered to users with multi-homed equipment and simultaneous access to the network by means of heterogeneous smartcells in the customer premises.
