Performance Analysis of Video stream over Wi-Fi and Ethernet

Presentation Final Report

Abstract

Past couple of years have seen a steady upsurge in the demand of internet video streaming services; most notably Netflix, HuluPlus and HBO Now. This has motivated us to analyze the performance profile of internet video streaming over Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi connected Mobile user.

In order to achieve this we will be using the Riverbed Modeler to test a video trace file and measure the End-to-End delay as well as Throughput. We will be setting up a master server in California, connected to a subnet which will house an Ethernet server. To this server we will attach a switch that in turn will connect our end user in the form of an Ethernet Workstation, Wireless Mobile node such as a laptop or a cell phone and a Wireless capable fixed device such as a gaming console or a wireless Desktop
