Qos Management

Qos Management
The Qos Management is to guarantee the service quality, provide differentiated service and manage the resource efficiently.

MORAN (Dedicated Carrier) Can be set respectively?

In MORAN mode ,operators can set different Qos without inter-impact .

In MOCN mode, its recommended that operators have the same Qos setting.
Different parameters may lead to unfair result under the same cell resources. E.g. the golden user with ARP=3 in Op.B has higher GBR than Op.A, & the user with ARP=5 has less weight than Op.A.
