Wireless crowdsourced performance monitoring and verification: WiFi performance measurement using end-user mobile device feedback

摘要

The use of crowdsourced-based network performance measurement services and technologies is set to increase continually among the National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) in the near future. This requires an understanding of the behavior of network performance issues, and their localization and verification on wireless campus networks. The approach presented in this paper is based on the end-user mobile device measurement feedback and allows the visualization of network performance in real time.
