Abstract:With the development of mobile communications network technology, and the springing up of multimedia information, an increasing requirement for multimedia information service is needed. The mobile streaming media based on HTTP protocol becomes a research hotspot with its advantages of Web server network environment which has wide operating foundation, simple deployment and wide application. This paper briefly introduces the relevant characteristic of mobile streaming media based on HTTP protocol. We selectively analyse each layer factors that influence the QoE of the HTTP mobile streaming media. We investigate the evaluation methods and the existing tools. The relevant optimization methods of the HTTP mobile streaming media are introduced. Finally, we summarize and forecast the QoE management based on HTTP mobile streaming.
