Abstract:
Fixed Mobile Convergence is a topic that is receiving significant attention from the research community as well as telecom equipment vendors around the world. The paper surveys standardization activities and proposes an end-to-end architecture that will support this architecture. The role of traffic management IP-based Quality of Service is recognized as a vital component for the success of a multiservice, IP-based and converged network.
