Abstract :
The Internet is evolving towards both the support for mobility and multimedia services with quality of service (QoS) guarantees. While these trends are clearly seen, a relation into the existing network evolution should be understood and exploited. This paper discusses an integrated QoS architecture for GSM networks using the Internet mobility and QoS enhancements in progress. In this context the required entities, distribution of functionalities and interfaces are studied using new GSM packet and high-speed circuit switched data features
