Abstract
Methods and apparatuses to enhance delivery capacity for traffic in a communication network are disclosed. Traffic is received to a Delivery Function with originally coded Quality of Services (QoS). A specification of requested QoS is received to the Delivery Function. The originally coded QoS is established to be higher than the requested QoS. The received traffic is transcoded into requested QoS. Optionally, the traffic is buffered with originally coded QoS and at request, the buffered traffic is retrieved.
Claims19
Method to enhance delivery capacity for traffic in a communication network, comprising the following steps:
- receiving to an access point, a request to monitor traffic;
- receiving from the access point to a Delivery Function, the requested traffic with originally coded Quality of Services (QoS);
- comprising
- receiving to the Delivery Function, a specification of requested QoS;
- establishing that the requested QoS is lower than the originally coded QoS;
- transcoding the received traffic into requested QoS.
Method to enhance delivery capacity for traffic in a communication network, comprising the following steps:
- receiving to a Delivery Function, traffic with originally coded Quality of Services QoS;
- comprising
- receiving to the Delivery Function, a specification of requested QoS;
- establishing that the originally coded QoS is higher than the requested QoS;
- transcoding the received traffic into requested QoS.
An apparatus used to enhance delivery capacity for traffic in a communication network, comprising:
- means for receiving to an access point, a request to monitor traffic;
- means for receiving from the access point to a Delivery Function, the requested traffic with originally coded Quality of Services QoS;
- comprising
- means for receiving to the Delivery Function, a specification of requested QoS;
- means for establishing that the requested QoS is lower than the originally coded QoS;
- means for transcoding the received traffic into requested QoS.
Node in a communication network, comprising:
- means to receive requested traffic with originally coded Quality of Services QoS;
- comprising
- means to receive, a specification of requested QoS;
- means to establishing that the originally coded QoS is higher than the requested QoS;
- means for transcoding the received traffic into requested QoS.
A computer readable medium having stored thereon a plurality of instructions, the plurality of instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform the steps of a method for enhancing delivery capacity for traffic in a communication network, comprising:
- receiving with originally coded Quality of Services (QoS);
- receiving a specification of requested QoS;
- establishing that the originally coded QoS is higher than the requested QoS;
- transcoding the received traffic into requested QoS.
