Analysis of Experience Quality Parameters of Cloud Video Conferencing Systems under Interference Conditions

https://doi.org/10.31854/1813-324X-2023-9-1-59-73

Abstract

The article deals with the testing of popular domestic and foreign cloud videoconferencing systems. A methodology for testing and comparing qualitative parameters of videoconferencing applications based on international experience is proposed. Assessment and comparison of videoconferencing services is based on the calculation of Hurst data flows, formed by the investigated cloud videoconferencing systems. Various applications of foreign and domestic videoconferencing systems have been tested in different operation modes with different channel quality parameters.
