3G/4G network speeds and rapid advances in smartphone technology have made mobile television viewing a reality. Most major mobile service providers now offer some form of live and/or pre-recorded video mobile programming to their cellular customers, often at an additional premium over the base monthly rate for voice and data.
User expectations of mobile TV quality may not be as high as that for terrestrial standard or high definition TV, but at minimum users expect video broadcasts to be smooth and uninterrupted. As screen resolution on mobile devices continues to improve, so will customer expectations of picture quality.

Real-time perceptual quality measurements, diagnostic information, and service performance alerts are sent from every mobile device throughout each video session, giving mobile providers a continuous view of customer QoE across the service network.
