Map indicating quality of service for delivery of video data to wireless device
First Claim
1. A method for providing Quality of Service (QoS) information regarding video content delivery to a requesting wireless device, the method comprising:
- for each wireless device of a plurality of serviced wireless devices operating within a service area;
receiving position information regarding a wireless device during delivery of video content;
determining QoS provided during delivery of the video content, the QoS provided during delivery of the video content delivery varying over time and respective to the position information;
consolidating collected QoS/position information;
producing a QoS map for the service area based upon the consolidated collected QoS/position information; and
downloading the QoS map for the service area to the requesting wireless device.

Abstract
Providing Quality of Service (QoS) information regarding video content delivery to a requesting wireless device. QoS/position information is first collected by, for each wireless device of a plurality of serviced wireless devices operating within a service area, receiving position information regarding a wireless device during delivery of video content and determining QoS provided during delivery of the video content, the QoS provided during delivery of the video content delivery varying over time and respective to the position information. The collected QoS/position information is then consolidated and a QoS map for the service area is produced based upon the consolidated collected QoS/position information. Finally, the QoS map for the service area is downloaded to the requesting wireless device. The QoS map may be tailored for the requesting wireless device based upon a current position/mobility of the requesting wireless device.
