Research and Markets: Video Killed the Radio Star - Video over LTE Performance Benchmark Study


Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/rntjfb/signals_ahead) has announced the addition of the "Signals Ahead - Video Killed the Radio Star [Video over LTE Performance Benchmark Study]" report to their offering.

Leveraging test equipment from Spirent Communications (News - Alert) and Accuver, SRG conducted video performance benchmark tests of seven smartphones in a commercial LTE network.

The test results reveal dramatic performance differences in the video player capabilities of the smartphones that we tested.

The Apple (News - Alert) iPhone 6 Plus was the top performing smartphone bya considerable margin.



We also tested models from HTC (News - Alert) (1), LG (1), and Samsung (4).

We observed the benefits of carrier aggregation, even when streaming relatively low bit rate video streams.


Improvements in chipsets (baseband + application processor) and device optimization over the last few years have resulted in high double-digit reductions in smartphone power consumption.
