In this paper, we compare the QoS performance enhancement schemes according to the network architecture of mobile WiMAX system in order to improve the end-to-end QoS performance and propose QoS parameter mapping method and IP packet scheduling algorithm. To evaluate the end-to-end QoS performance, we implemented an end-to-end simulator of mobile WiMAX system using OPNET. Simulation results show that the proposed QoS parameter mapping scheme reduces the average delay of VoIP packet and improves uplink resource efficiency. And also, when the proposed IP packet scheduling algorithm is applied to the system, the end-to-end packet transmission delay of VoIP service can be reduced by 44-67 percent compared to FIFO and WRR scheduler.

This study proposes an Architecture for user level End-to-end Quality of Service(QoS) using overlay In Next Generation Network(NGN). Inexisting NGNs, the IMS of a control plane provides user QoS through direct traffic control and resource-reservation over the IP packet transport network of a user plane. Further, a set of torrent studies are ongoing not only to maximize the QoS for users, but also to minimize the quality deterioration for supporting the user End-to-end QoS. Along with that, an extended QoS in user level must be considered, for Instance, differentiating service quality to support users' expectation, providing optimized contents by users' equipments, and so forth. Accordingly, the Overlay Service Network Architecture proposed by this study provides protocol adaptation for maximum throughput on transport layer by using the most efficient transport layer protocol to various network circumstances. Also, the Overlay Service Network Architecture on application layer distributes processing delay from the data transformation process of the user equipment to the network, and it is capable of intermediate processing depending on user service level. application service feature, and equipment circumstance as well. Thus, this study mainly proposes the Overlay Service Network Architecture for user level end-to-end QoS in NGN with the quality control features both on the transport layer and the application layer, an internal component feature, and a service scenario providing the QoS linking with 3GPP.

Supporting Quality of Service (QoS) for multimedia services in heterogeneous mobile networks is a part of key issue for Three Generation Evolution (3GE) development. A QoS management structure needs to guarantee the QoS of moving users based on an end-to-end negotiation to support the seamless service when MT is moving between the heterogeneous networks. We propose an end-to-end negotiation method based on SLA(Service Level Agreement). For this aim, the SLA control and algorithm for supporting MT's QoS is considered. Simulation is focused on the average delay and packet loss rate, and the results show that our proposed method provides mobile terminals with the optimal performance.

Lately development of network around Internet expands range of data traffic to multimedia information, and so for the guarantee of multimedia services end-to-end QoS(Quality of Service) must service because comparing with existing Internet service can not support For satisfying those QoS requirements, network have to guarantee not only network on parameter, such as delay, jitter, throughput but also system resources like CPU utilization, memory usage. Therefore it is urgent to develop QoS based middleware to distribute multimedia data and maximize network utilization in the limited resource environment. And it must be necessary of network to provide end-to-end QoS(Quality of Service) for multimedia applications. Multimedia applications want that QoS which satisfy their own service properties be guaranteed Then, We must analyze those necessary QoS requirements md define QoS parameter which specify as two viewpoint, user's and network's perspective. Therefore network provider supplying network for usual user and university, enterprise must want to find about their own network performance and problem. It is essential for network manager to want to use a tool like this. On the basis of technique about QoS test-bed in the AIM network, We studied on the method of QoS measurement and management about end-to-end connection in the Internet. We measured network status about end-to-end connection and analyze the result of performance.

The Differentiated Services (Diffserv) framework has been proposed by the IETF as a simple service structure that can provide different Quality of Service (QoS) to different classes of packets in IP networks. IP packets are classified into one of a limited number of service classes, and are marked in the packet header for easy classification and differentiated treatments when transferred within a Diffserv domain. The Diffserv framework defines simple and efficient QoS differentiation mechanisms for the Internet. However, the original Diffserv concept does not provide a complete QoS management framework. Since traffic flows in IP networks are unidirectional from one network point to the other and routing paths and traffic demand get dynamically altered, it is important to monitor end-to-end traffic status, as well as traffic status in a single node. This paper suggests a distributed QoS monitoring method that collects the statistical data of each service class in every Diffserv router and calculates edge-to-edge QoS of the aggregated IP flows by combining routing topology and traffic status. A format modeling of edge-to-edge Diffserv flows and algorithms for aggregating edge-to-edge QoS is presented. Also an SNMP-based QoS management prototype system for Diffserv networks is presented, which validates our QoS management framework and demonstrates useful service management functionality.

기존의 데이터망과는 달리 B-ISDN은 데이터, variable-rate 비디오 등과 같은 bursty하고 variable bit rate를 갖는 트래픽원으로부터 smooth하고 constant bit rate를 갖는 트래픽원까지 광범위한 계층의 트래픽을 모두 수용해야만 한다. 게다가 이 망은 다양한 계층의 트래픽에게 일정 수준 이상의 품질, 즉 QoS(Quality of Service)를 보장해 주어야만 한다. 셀 손실이나 지연시간 그리고 지연시간 jittere등을 포함하는 QoS 성능척도들은 응용서비스 별로 서로 다를 것이고 특히 실시간(real-time) 응용 서비스를 지원하는 망에서의 QoS문제는 특별히 중요성을 더하게 된다. 따라서 통계적 다중화에 의해 얻어지는 망자원의 효율성을 확보하면서 end-to-end QoS 보장을 해주는 문제는 B-ISDN에서 매우 중요하나 아직 대부분 미해결 문제로 남아 있는 분야이다. 본 연구에서는 end-to-end 분석에 가장 큰 에로점으로 부각되는 multi-hop망 환경하에서 트래픽 분석에 초점을 맞추어 기존 연구결과등을 폭넓게 비교 분석하고 최근 연구 동향 및 추후 연구 사항을 제시하고자 한다.

In this paper, we propose the delay sensitive traffic and a high bandwidth QoS service in order to supply real-time traffic such as VoIP, multimedia service. We use IntServ over DiffServ network to supply end-to-end QoS service in the IETF. We define the proposed QoS services which are Best, Good, Default service. We analyze the performance using NS simulator with end to end QoS service in IntServ over DiffServ network. The proposed billing system uses the Accounting, Authentication, Authorization (AAA) functions of RADIUS protocol and proposes the dynamic pricing method according to network usage state using end-to-end QoS of IntServ over DiffServ network. In order to secure billing system, we design and implement audit trail system by the IEEE POSIX.1E standard.

In 3G networks interworking with external IP-based networks, provision of end-to-end QoS to packet-based services is a critical issue. In this paper, we propose DiffServ-aware Multiple Protocol Label Switching(MPLS) as a new policy enforcement means. With the adoption of the proposed DiffServ-aware MPLS, it is feasible to provide differentiated QoS provision with the help of DiffServ as well as to improve network utilization by using multiple paths based on MPLS. We verify the effectiveness of our proposed policy enforcement means through a simulation in which realtime traffic and non-realtime traffic are served together.

Several gateway selection schemes have been proposed that select gateway nodes based on a single Quality of Service (QoS) path parameter, for instance path availability period, link capacity or end-to-end delay, etc. or on multiple non-QoS parameters, for instance the combination of gateway node speed, residual energy, and number of hops, for Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs). Each scheme just focuses on the ment of improve only a single network performance, i.e., network throughput, packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay, or packet drop ratio. However, none of these schemes improves the overall network performance because they focus on a single QoS path parameter or on set of non-QoS parameters. To improve the overall network performance, it is necessary to select a gateway with stable path, a path with themaximum residual load capacity and the minimum latency. In this paper, we propose a gateway selection scheme that considers multiple QoS path parameters such as path availability period, available capacity and latency, to select a potential gateway node. We improve the path availability computation accuracy, we introduce a feedback system to updated path dynamics to the traffic source node and we propose an efficient method to propagate QoS parameters in our scheme. Computer simulations show that our gateway selection scheme improves throughput and packet delivery ratio with less per node energy consumption. It also improves the end-to-end delay compared to single QoS path parameter gateway selection schemes. In addition, we simulate the proposed scheme by considering weighting factors to gateway selection parameters and results show that the weighting factors improve the throughput and end-to-end delay compared to the conventional schemes.
