doc.: IEEE /xxxx Submission July 2007 Lei Du, DoCoMo Beijing Labs Slide 2 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.

doc.: IEEE /xxxx Submission July 2007 Lei Du, DoCoMo Beijing Labs Slide 3 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 e 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. Motivation

doc.: IEEE /xxxx Submission July 2007 Lei Du, DoCoMo Beijing Labs Slide 4 What is E2E QoS awareness? SSPN/Internet Typical data amount: <10 kB One-way delay: several minutes Packet loss rate: 0 Conversational Voice: Typical data rate: 4-64kbps One-way delay: <150ms (preferred) <400ms (limit) Delay variation: <1ms Packet Loss rate: <3% STA1 MT1 WLAN Cellular Conversational Voice: Typical data rate: 4-64kbps One-way delay: <30ms (preferred) <50ms (limit) Delay variation: <1ms Packet Loss rate: <3% E2E QoS Per-BSS QoS

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)? Admission Control User Authorisation Information (from SSPN) Wireless Link (BSS) Traffic Information Control SSPN information: - load at other APs or SSPN (how?)

doc.: IEEE /xxxx Submission July 2007 Lei Du, DoCoMo Beijing Labs Slide 6 What’s benefits from E2E QoS aware admission control? (1/2) E2E QoS aware admission control can increase/decrease the BSS admission capacity adaptively to meet E2E QoS requirements at the user. SSPN/Internet STA1 MT1 WLAN Cellular e.g., Total Delay 200ms Aggregate Delay ms Tolerable Delay ms BSS Admission Capacity: Admission capacity will be adaptive to accept or reject additional transmission

doc.: IEEE /xxxx Submission July 2007 Lei Du, DoCoMo Beijing Labs Slide 7 What’s benefits from E2E QoS aware admission control? (2/2) 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. SSPN/Internet STA1 MT1 WLAN Cellular e.g., Voice: Access Delay parameter, Data: Packet Error Rate Cellular Admission Control E2E QoS aware Request: PER 3% QoS parameter setting: Unified QoS parameter setting can be used among heterogeneous access networks. Individual Admission ControlWLAN Admission Control

doc.: IEEE /xxxx Submission July 2007 Lei Du, DoCoMo Beijing Labs Slide 8 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.
