Abstract

The article deals with the correlation between objective and subjective methods and the subsequent mapping of the selected objective metric to MOS scale. The theoretical part of the paper focuses on objective and subjective metrics applied for testing. The practical part describes the measurements and the experimental results. The results are implemented into the new model. The developed model will facilitate predicting the quality in networks based on IP.
