QoEDomain

QoSDomain

•Based on some specific data collection and Processing

•QoS measuring according to some agreed basic indicators

•Based of customers appreciation of QoS

• Includes a part of subjectivity regarding the experience context

•No take in account the quality of the consumer phone

For Accurate QoS Survey

QoS Description

Through NMS Solution

• Descriptive statistics

• Faithful image of networks state

• Description continuously in time

• Tight survey of hole networks

• Rapid identification of problems

• Circumscribe the survey locally

QoS Qualification Through QoE Solution

• Focus on specific path

• Benchmark fo NMS results

• Reality of customer experience

@ a given time

• Quantizes customer experience

appreciation

• No subjectivity in experience de
