Abstract:
The goal of this paper is to propose a solution in order to enhance the quality of services support inside the Internet Protocol-based packet switched domain of an Universal Mobile Telecommunications System architecture. The originality of this approach lies in the perspective of an integrated functionality defined at the conjunction of the service requests with the network capabilities. Objective quality of services and quality of experience analysis will highlight the benefits of the autonomic resource management in terms of average end-to-end delay, jitter and mean opinion score.
