Abstract
An apparatus and method adjust an adaptive service bandwidth in a mobile communication system in which differentiated services for guaranteeing QoS are provided. Services are provided by using a bandwidth greater than an accepted reference value when resources of the network have a margin, and by using a weighted value according to a class when the network is in an overload state to efficiently transmit a packet and provide a user with optimal services.
Claims17
An apparatus for adjusting an adaptive service bandwidth in a quality of service (QoS) guaranteed network, comprising:
- a network status determining module for determining a status of the network;
- and
- a QoS processing module for adjusting the bandwidth using a first reference value if it is determined that the network status is in an overload state, and adjusting the bandwidth using a second reference value higher than the first reference value if it is determined that the network status is not in the overload state.
A method for adjusting an adaptive service bandwidth in a quality of service (QoS) guaranteed network, comprising the steps of:
- determining a status of the network;
- measuring a volume of packets introduced into the network on the basis of each subscriber;
- setting a first reference value on the basis of a QoS class, and a second reference value on the basis of the measured volume of introduced packets;
- selecting the first reference value if it is determined that the network status is in an overload state, and selecting the second reference value higher than the first reference value if it is determined that the network status is not in the overload state;
- and
- adjusting the bandwidth using the selected reference values.
