Abstract
The increasing uptake of Internet of Things (IoT),Big data and cloud-based services introduces a new set ofrequirements for network performance. Furthermore, theevolution of mobile networks towards an all-IP 4G LTEintroduces new challenges for traditional voice and data services.It is critical for operators to guarantee minimum levels ofperformance. Therefore, operators need to understand andmanage both quality and performance of the services to fulfill onthe technical quality of service (QoS) as well as on the quality ofexperience (QoE) level. 4G LTE broadband mobile technologieshave been designed with different QoS (Quality of Service)frameworks to enable delivery of the evolving Internetapplications. Specifically, it is fundamental requirement toprovide satisfactory service delivery to users and also to managenetwork resources. To provide QoS, different service levels arespecified for different types or stream of traffic in term ofthroughput, latency (delay), jitter (delay variation) and packeterrors or loss. This paper aims to provide a basic principle ofQoS of the 4G LTE service. The impact of QoS parameter onQoE such as real-time and video communication services isdiscussed in this paper. QoS for 5G and M2M networks is alsodiscussed in this paper as a future research.
