Power Consumption Models for Streaming on Mobile Terminals with On-Off Characteristics

The usage of smartphones has been increasing with surprising speed. These smartphones are popular for delivery of video content. The main drawbacks of these smartphones are battery life and video freezing. Despite, while streaming a video it consumes large of amount of power affecting QoE. So, in this case we considered streaming a video from server to mobile client involving ONOFF characteristics. While streaming, there exists some transition delay while switching the power states and the effect of these transition delays might affect instantaneous power consumption of the smartphone. Henceforth, this thesis aims to determine the effect on instantaneous power consumption from distributed state durations and transitions in exponential fluid flow model, for a streamed video. Power measurements along with ON and OFF times were measured with the help of a benchmark tool, Monsoon Power Monitor tool. VLQoE tool, a video streaming tool was used to present a two state model based on the inter-picture time, for the HTTP-based video streaming. Experiments were executed in a closed enclosure setup using a black-box to avoid external obstacles that might possibly affect the power consumption metrics. Considering these measurements, the effect on instantaneous power consumption stemming from the exponentially distributed state durations and transitions in the corresponding fluid flow model can be determined and modelled.
