Controlling transmission resources in mobile radio systems with dualtransfer mode

A computer-readable medium comprising a computer program with instructions operable to cause a processor to:

• receive, at a first entity, a response indicating allowable transmission resources for a first connection between said first entity and a second entity in response to a request for establishing said first connection, said first entity being a client entity, said allowable transmission resources determined at least partially based on a difference between available transmission resources of the first entity and resources required by the first entity for a second connection between said first entity and said second entity before said second connection has been requested;
• and control, at the first entity, the use of at least one portion of said allowable transmission resources by said first connection, said controlling comprising selecting pausing or releasing said first connection if it is later determined that quality of service requirements of said first connection can no longer be guaranteed when said allowable transmission resources are jointly used by said first connection and said second connection.

An apparatus comprised in a mobile station, comprising:

• a receiver configured to receive a response indicating allowable transmission resources for a first connection between a first entity of the mobile station and a second entity in response to a request for establishing said first connection, the first entity being a client entity, the allowable transmission resources determined at least partially based on a difference between available transmission resources of the first entity and resources required by the first entity for a second connection between said first entity and said second entity before said second connection has been requested;
• and a controller configured to at least partially control the use of at least one portion of said allowable transmission resources by said first connection, said controlling comprising selecting pausing or releasing said first connection if it is later determined that quality of service requirements of said first connection can no longer be guaranteed when said allowable transmission resources are jointly used by said first connection and said second connection.

An apparatus comprised in a mobile station, comprising:

• means for receiving a response indicating allowable transmission resources for a first connection between a first entity of the mobile station and a second entity in response to a request for establishing said first connection, the first entity being a client entity, said allowable transmission resources determined at least partially based on a difference between available transmission resources of the first entity and resources required by the first entity for a second connection between said first entity and said second entity before said second connection has been requested;
• and means for at least partially controlling the use of at least one portion of said allowable transmission resources by said first connection, said controlling comprising selecting pausing or releasing said first connection if it is later determined that quality of service requirements of said first connection can no longer be guaranteed when said allowable transmission resources are jointly used by said first connection and said second connection.
