摘要:Ensuring stringent Quality of Service (QoS) requirements is a critical issue in determining the performance of the network. Added to that, when the network happen to be converged Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) and Long Term Evolution (LTE) which is essential for today�s bandwidth-intensive customer needs, it is still more critical. Hence, allocation of resources to the end-points is the crucial process in such a converged network. This paper reports a new scheme for allocating time-slots to the end user services in converged EPON and LTE networks. And it is enhanced to support QoS by establishing a mapping mechanism between the LTE bearers and EPON queues. Simulation results reveal that throughput and other QoS services, such as jitter, delay excel in the employed scheme than the traditional one.
