QoE Monitor is an open-source software module for Network Simulator 3 (NS-3), usable to perform Quality-of-Experience (QoE) evaluations of multimedia communications in simulative networks. More in detail, it is able to assess the user perceived quality of audio and/or video multimedia streams. Its design has been inspired by EvalVid (link to http://www.tkn.tu-berlin.de/menue/research/evalvid/).

QoE Monitor is currently developed by the Networking Research group of Department of Information Engineering at University of Modena and Reggio Emilia (http://www.dii.unimore.it/).

List of currently available features:
- PSNR/SSIM computation for H.264 video transmission
- G.711 audio transmission
- Basic RTP emulation
- Receiver side jitter estimation, according to RFC 3550

To do:
- support new audio and video codecs
- support new audio and video formats
- develop objective audio evaluation metric(s)

Very important:
Currently the best approach to make QoE Monitor working with NS-3 consist of using Ubuntu 12.04 and NS-3.13.
