A Novel QoS-Aware Method Based on Resource Control and Management in NGN Networks

Abstract

Next generation Networks (NGN) are required to support the seamless delivery of voice, video and data with high quality. One of the most important key features of NGN is Quality of Service (QoS), which has been a focal point of NGN research, development and standardization. In this work, we propose and demonstrate an efficient NGN QoS-Aware resource and admission control and management methodology which guarantees the QoS requirements. The advantages of the proposed method, in terms of QoS gains, are demonstrated through modeling of the main QoS parameters. Simulation results are derived to evaluate the performance of the proposed method in terms of supporting the QoS and improving the transport network scalability.
