A Survey of Multimedia Streaming in LTE Cellular Networks
With the growing of Long Term Evolution (LTE) cellular networks and the
increase in the demand of the video services, it is vital to consider the
challenges in the streaming services from a different perspective. A
perspective that focuses on the streaming services in light of cellular
networks challenges, both per layer basis and across multiple layers as well.
In this tutorial, we highlight the main challenges that faces the industry of
video streaming in the context of cellular networks with a focus on LTE. We
also discuss proposed solutions for these challenges while highlighting the
limitations of these solutions and the conditions/assumptions required for
these solution to deliver high performance. In addition, we show different work
in cross layer optimization for video streaming and how it leads towards a more
optimized end to end LTE networking for video streaming. Finally, we suggest
different open research areas in the domain of video delivery over LTE networks
that can significantly enhance the quality of streaming experience to the end
