Abstract
A distinguishing feature of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) is the support of different levels of quality of service (QoS) as required by subscribers and their applications. To provide QoS, the UMTS backbone network needs an efficient QoS mechanism to provide the demanded level of services on UMTS network. We implement a model to investigate end-to-end quality of service (QoS) provisioning approaches for UMTS networks in a DiffServ IP network environment. The effort was put on QoS classes mapping from DiffServ to UMTS, Access Control, buffering and scheduling optimization. The DiffServ Code Point was utilized in the E2E UMTS QoS provisioning to differentiate different types of traffic. We hybridized our work by applying Resource reservation protocol (RSVP) in routers and hosts. The main advantages and drawbacks are discussed. We found that our proposed model (hybridized model (DiffServ/RSVP)) improves the end-to-end delay and end-to-end variation compared with DiffServ model only, and it is superior to DiffServ regarding to throughput, utilization and packet loss ratio. The overall work guarantees the E2E QoS parameters of each service class, especially for real-time applications and improved the bandwidth utilization. Simulation results show that DiffServ can be an effective candidate for UMTS backbone bearer service.
