METHOD FOR MAPPING QUALITY OF SERVICE REQUIREMENTS TO RADIO PROTOCOL PARAMETERS
First Claim
1. A method for transmitting, by a communications unit, packets of a service having quality of service (QoS) requirements, comprising the steps ofreceiving QoS parameters associated with a service including at least one of delay, maximum bit rate, maximum data unit size and average bit rate,mapping the QoS parameters to radio protocol parameters including at least one of a priority slot interval, a priority slot phase, a packet duration and modulation format for a radio channel;
- andtransmitting the packets on the radio channel according to the mapped radio protocol parameters.

Abstract
An apparatus and method for transmitting packets having quality of service requirement wherein the quality of service requirements associated with the packets are received at an input, said quality of service parameters include at least one of delay, bandwidth, peak bandwidth and retransmission bandwidth. The received quality of service parameters are mapped to radio protocol parameters including at least one of a priority slot interval, a priority slot phase, a packet duration and modulation format for the radio channel. The packets are transmitted on a radio channel according to the mapped radio protocol parameters.
