Method and apparatus for increasing performance of a wireless communication system

摘要

A method for increasing performance of a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes determining (220) quality of service parameters that will result in a reduced likelihood that an application assigned the determined quality of service parameters will be scheduled for transmission, identifying (230) an application to be provided service that is less than best effort, and assigning (240) the determined one or more quality of service parameters to the identified application. In an embodiment, the method further assigns (250) a dedicated bearer to the identified application and either does not schedule (260) the dedicated bearer at all or schedules (270) the dedicated bearer less frequently compared to a frequency of scheduling a default bearer.
