Impact of 5G network performance on augmented reality application QoE

Deployment of 5G mobile communication networks has released the full potential of Internet of Things, enabling emerging interactive technologies such as Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, as well as their merge. In this paper, we consider the impact of introducing 5G network on the perceptual user experience for an Augmented Reality application – specifically, the educational mobile web-based one as the most promising with this regard. However, it is an extremely demanding application in which various multimedia processing tasks are performed. Therefore, we used appropriate simulations to validate the expectations that 5G network enabling higher data rates and low latency, would significantly improve the application-layer quality of experience, with a mobile web access in particular. These expectations were found to be fulfilled, as, specifically, the required time for the end user to load the tested web-based AR application and required Script, has been drastically reduced with respect to the previous generations of mobile networks.
