Abstract

This paper studies a method of assessing QoE of Web services on a mobile host over a wireless LAN. To perform QoE assessment, the authors utilize their integrated simulator/emulator system. This experiment assumes six scenarios where pedestrians assess Web services while moving. The authors treat a shopping service and a Wiki service as target Web services and consider Web usability as QoE. The experimental results do not confirm that degradation of QoE depends on that of QoS. Consequently, it is inevitable to assess actual QoE and the integrated simulator/emulator system is effective in performing such assessment.
