Thesis #12 Report for CDSF (e-Horizon project)

With the tremendous growth of services and applications highly uploadingdata as much as downloading it, such as video conferencing and Virtual Real-ity (VR) streaming, the uplink throughput monitoring is required. However,throughput is considered as a crucial QoS metric in cellular networks. Infact, the chaotic radio phenomena characterizing the real environment leadto a degradation for the different QoS metrics, especially the throughput.Such phenomena include noise, multipath fading, and interference, etc. It isincreasingly hard to understand how the throughput changes rapidly depend-ing on the environmental situations. Therefore, radio phenomena should beconsidered when monitoring the uplink throughput in such environments. Asrecent researchers endorse the use of 4G standard for the short and middleterm services/applications, the uplink throughput monitoring in such net-works is then considered.
