Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2007 Abstract This presentation will discuss the End-to-End (E2E) QoS aware admission control scenarios between WLAN and external networks to improve the user satisfaction. Lei Du, NTT DoCoMo John Doe, Some Company

Motivation User satisfaction Admission control Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2007 Motivation User satisfaction - describes how the application is perceived by the end-users. - is determined by E2E QoS parameters as defined in ITU-T G.1010[1], including delay, delay jitter, packet loss rate, etc. ⇒ E2E QoS awareness needs to be considered in WLAN. Admission control - has been used to achieve QoS awareness. - is defined in 802.11e by using ADDTS request/response frame exchange. - takes into account of current traffic status within a BSS or multiple BSSs if the AP switch is deployed. ⇒ E2E QoS aware admission control will improve users satisfaction.

What is E2E QoS awareness? Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2007 What is E2E QoS awareness? Conversational Voice: Typical data rate: 4-64kbps One-way delay: <150ms (preferred) <400ms (limit) Delay variation: <1ms Packet Loss rate: <3% E2E QoS Email: Typical data amount: <10 kB One-way delay: several minutes Packet loss rate: 0 STA1 WLAN MT1 SSPN/Internet Per-BSS QoS Cellular Conversational Voice: Typical data rate: 4-64kbps One-way delay: <30ms (preferred) <50ms (limit) Delay variation: <1ms Packet Loss rate: <3% Lei Du, NTT DoCoMo John Doe, Some Company

Admission Control Admission Control Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2007 Admission Control User Authorisation Information (from SSPN) Admission Control Wireless Link (BSS) Traffic Information Control SSPN information: load at other APs or SSPN (how?) Admission control within one BSS is proposed in 802.11e. BUT How does .11e interact with other admission control decisions of external networks? What are the impacts on user experience (source STA/MT and destination STA/MT)? Reference : 11-03-0727-02-0wng-interworking-mac-issues.ppt Lei Du, NTT DoCoMo John Doe, Some Company

What’s benefits from E2E QoS aware admission control? (1/2) Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2007 What’s benefits from E2E QoS aware admission control? (1/2) BSS Admission Capacity: Admission capacity will be adaptive to accept or reject additional transmission e.g., Total Delay 200ms SSPN/Internet STA1 MT1 Cellular WLAN Aggregate Delay 70-100ms Tolerable Delay 100-130ms E2E QoS aware admission control can increase/decrease the BSS admission capacity adaptively to meet E2E QoS requirements at the user.

What’s benefits from E2E QoS aware admission control? (2/2) Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2007 What’s benefits from E2E QoS aware admission control? (2/2) WLAN Admission Control Individual Admission Control Cellular Admission Control SSPN/Internet STA1 MT1 QoS parameter setting: Unified QoS parameter setting can be used among heterogeneous access networks. Cellular WLAN e.g., Voice: Access Delay parameter, Data: Packet Error Rate E2E QoS aware Request: PER 3% E2E QoS aware admission control may use an unified QoS aware parameter setting among heterogeneous access networks depending on the traffic classes. This unified parameter setting will improve the end-user satisfaction. Lei Du, NTT DoCoMo John Doe, Some Company

Summary and Recommendation Month Year doc.: IEEE 802.11-yy/xxxxr0 July 2007 Summary and Recommendation E2E QoS aware admission control will Improve user experience in the application layer Adjust the WLAN admission capacity adaptively without violating QoS of ongoing connections. Use unified methodology for E2E QoS parameter setting among heterogeneous access networks to meet end-user satisfaction. Lei Du, NTT DoCoMo John Doe, Some Company
