The effect of audiovisual cross-modality on QoE of Multi-View Video and Audio IP transmission

Abstract

In this paper, we consider combinations of transmission schemes for each media in MVV-A (Multi-View Video and Audio) IP transmission when the total bitrate of transmitted audiovisual streams is regulated. We employ two types of transmission schemes: single stream transmission and all streams simultaneous transmission. We assess QoE of the four combinations of the transmission schemes by a subjective experiment. We then find that the cross-modal effect on QoE of MVV-A IP transmission exists; each media can affect the other media. In addition, QoE with the same transmission scheme for both audio and video is higher than that with the different transmission schemes for each media.
