Abstract:
A telecommunication control system for handling data transfer quality for multiple adaptive and elastic applications, said system comprising:an application interpreter that interfaces with the applications and generates at least one bearer request in response to a request from an application for a connection to a bearer, said bearer request including a requested level of data transfer quality, said application interpreter generating a new bearer request whenever a running adaptive or elastic application requests a connection requiring a different level of data transfer quality during an established data session; an admission control apparatus that receives the at least one bearer request and matches each bearer request with an offered bearer to produce a negotiated bearer that meets the requested level of data transfer quality, said control apparatus producing a new negotiated bearer whenever the application interpreter generates a new bearer request that includes a different requested level of data transfer quality; and a radio resource manager that receives the negotiated bearer from the control apparatus, allocates radio network resources required to provide the requested level of data transfer quality, and whenever a new negotiated bearer is received, reallocates radio network resources in order to provide the level of data transfer quality specified in the new negotiated bearer.
