METHOD FOR QUALITY OF SERVICE DIFFERENTIATION IN PACKET-MODE MOBILE COMMUNICATION NETWORKS

摘要

The invention relates to a method of managing quality of service, which is intended for use with a packet-mode mobile communication network. The invention is characterised in that, in the event of a network overhead occurring when the resources of the network are being accessed in order to execute a service for a network subscribe, the following step is performed at each of the nodes of the network, consisting in: determining a global priority level for access to the resources, said global priority level being defined by a combination of at least one quality of service parameter which is linked to the type of service and at least one quality of service parameter corresponding to a priority level of the subscriber; and applying at least one pre-defined service quality treatment to the flow of data corresponding to said service, according to the determined global priority level.
