QUALITY OF SERVICE (QoS) ISSUES IN MULTIMEDIA WIRELESS NETWORK – A SURVEY
Keywords:
Multimedia Wireless Network, QoS parameters in 3G Technology, QoS parameters in 4G technology, Current and future multimedia servicesAbstract
The advances in multimedia applications over a wide area network have directed considerable research into the quality of service. A comprehensive exposition of the specifications and management of quality of service (QoS) in wireless networks and in distributed computing systems, supporting multimedia applications, are important for both service providers and end users. This article is a survey to explore issues concerning the quality of service in the current and future multimedia services in wireless networks. The survey is done in two phases. In the first phase, a survey of various issues in third generation multimedia applications is presented. The second phase highlights research on QoS issues in the developing technology of the fourth generation wireless networks.
