Abstract: In the future UMTS network, the heterogeneous traffics of multimedia services demand various QoS provisioning. At the same time, the seamlessly conveying of information between mobile users and a hybrid network requires the networking from wireless to wireline domains. However, in both academia and industries, the end-to-end QoS provisioning in the integration of wireline and wireless networks remains a challenge. In this paper, a modeling of a hybrid wireless WCDMA and wireline IP-based DiffServ network is presented to investigate the resource allocation for end-to-end QoS provisioning for multimedia services. In the wireless domain, the mathematical modeling of the cross-layer model including the physical layer, the link layer and the network layer is built. The connection admission control scheme is implemented based on the cross-layer model to determine the amount of resource for different services. In the wireline domain, we define the mapping of QoS classes between UMTS and DiffServ networks according to different QoS requirements. We propose a bandwidth allocation scheme to provide satisfactory packet loss and delay guarantee in DiffServ networks. The final end-to-end admission control scheme combines the resource allocation and admission control in both wireless and wireline domains. The analytical and simulation results show that the proposed resource allocation and admission control schemes work cooperatively in the presented hybrid wireless and wireline networks to guarantee the end-to-end QoS requirements for multimedia services.
