Abstract :
As the explosive growth of mobile Internet applications and content, the network provider is facing the challenge of becoming "dumb pipe". Open service-aware mobile network QoS control API to 3rd party application and content providers will enable the network operators to change the "dumb" pipe to a "smart" pipe, and appeal more developers to create more innovative applications and content, improve the ARPU of the customers. This paper presents a solution of opening the service-aware mobile network QoS control API to 3rd party application and content providers, including the network architecture and components, open QoS API design, and a use case to show the use of open QoS APIs.
