1. A method of supporting quality of service (QoS) for communication, comprising:

  • with a wireless device;

    receiving a first set of QoS parameters for a first QoS model from a first entity, the first entity comprising an application at the wireless device;

    converting the first set of QoS parameters for the first QoS model to a second set of QoS parameters for a second QoS model;

    determining at least one data rate parameter for the second set of QoS parameters based at least in part on a maximum bit rate parameter, a latency parameter, or both in the first set of QoS parameters;

    sending the second set of QoS parameters to a second entity, the second entity comprising a first base station in a first communication network utilizing a first network technology;

    converting the first set of QoS parameters to a third set of QoS parameters for a third QoS model; and

    sending the third set of QoS parameters to a third entity, the third entity comprising a second base station in a second communication network utilizing a second network technology that is different from the first network technology.
