Quality of service (QoS) has been a commonly overused term with various meanings and perspectives in the past few years. IP networks such as the Internet and Wireless Cellular Networks (WCN) have been looking at QoS provisioning from rather different perspectives. Currently, two operational QoS mode

Abstract
With the convergence of wireless communication and IPβbased networking technologies, future IPβbased wireless networks are expected to support realβtime multimedia. IP services over wireless networks (e.g. wireless access to Internet) enhance the mobility and flexibility of traditional IP network users. Wireless networks extend the current IP service infrastructure to a mix of transmission media, bandwidth, costs, coverage, and service agreements, requiring enhancements to the IP protocol layers in wireless networks. Furthermore, QoS provisioning is required at various layers of the IP protocol stack to guarantee different types of service requests, giving rise to issues related to crossβlayer design methodology. This paper reviews issues and prevailing solutions to performance enhancements and QoS provisioning for IP services over mobile wireless networks from a layered view.
