A Third Generation of Mobile Systems: What for?

Standardisation
3GPP is a umbrella aiming to form compromised standards by taking into account, political, industrial, and commercial pressures from local specification bodies: ETSI European Telecommunication Standard Institute /Europe ARIB Association of Radio Industries and Business /Japan CWTS China Wireless Telecommunication Standard group /China T1 Standardisation Committee T1 Telecommunications /US TTA Telecommunication Technology Association /Korea TTC Telecommunication Technology Committee /Japan

QoS Classification
Service Classes Service classes divide connections into "main" classes

Traffic parameters define mainly Traffic Parameters The bandwidth requirements

QoS parameters define finally the QoS Parameters QoS of the connection: delay, jitter

buffer, etc.

UMTS QoS Service Class

UMTS network services have four types of traffic: - Conversational class (voice, video telephony, video gaming) - Streaming class (multimedia, video on demand, webcast) - Interactive class (web browsing, network gaming, database access) -Background class (email, SMS, downloading)
