Abstract

This paper proposes a cross-layer optimization framework that provides efficient allocation of wireless network resources across multiple types of applications to maximize network capacity and user satisfaction. We define a novel optimization scheme based on the Mean Opinion Score (MOS) as the unifying metric. Our experiments, applied to scenarios where users simultaneously run three types of applications, such as realtime voice, video conferencing and file download, confirm that MOS-based optimization leads to significant improvement in terms of user perceived quality when compared to throughput-based optimization.
