Test Methodology to measure End User QoE

23 September 2011 - Broadband and optical technology provider JDSU has led the development of RFC 6349 communications test breakthrough for measuring the end user quality of experience when uploading and downloading video and other high-bandwidth content over the internet.

JDSU developed the test methodology, known as RFC 6349, in collaboration with two global network operators. It was recently published by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as a repeatable service activation test method for managed IP networks. RFC 6349 features TCP layer enables service providers to measure the network's ability to support video and other high-bandwidth traffic driven by social media sites such as Facebook and YouTube. The RFC 6349 addresses Ethernet backhaul, Ethernet business services and cloud computing, the installation process. JDSU has integrated the methodology in its TrueSpeed automated TCP test service, available for the JDSU Multi-Services Application Module (MSAM) on both the JDSU T-BERD/MTS-6000A and JDSU T-BERD/MTS-8000. Major communications providers have used JDSU TrueSpeed to validate TCP layer performance for their end customers
