A Framework for Unified IP QoS Support Over UMTS and Wireless LANs

Overview As the Internet technologies evolve, more sophisticated and Quality of Service (QoS) demanding multimedia services are being requested by the users. The framework for a unified QoS support mechanism for IP traffic over UMTS and Wireless LANs is discussed. The work addresses the potential issues that emerge when using UMTS and WLANs as access systems to an IP core and focuses on defining a consistent mechanism that will support QoS and resource reservation in a unified. The proposed approach utilizes the RSVP for negotiating QoS parameters and reserving resources in an end-to-end basis.
