Abstract

In an embodiment, a method is provided for support of Quality of Service QoS control in a mobile communication system wherein an User Equipment has access to a mobile network providing Packet Data Network (PDN) connectivity services, said mobile network including a 3GPP Core Network (CN) accessed by a trusted non-3GPP Access Network (TNAN) via an interface between an Access Network Gateway (AN-GW) in said Trusted non-3GPP Access Network (TNAN) and a PDN Gateway PDN-GW in said 3GPP CN, said method including support of 3GPP CN-initiated QoS control, for uplink traffic from said UE, based on QoS control information received by said UE, said QoS control information allowing the UE to associate uplink traffic flows sent by the UE via Access Network Gateway (AN-GW) towards a PDN Gateway PDN-GW with TNAN connectivity QoS for uplink traffic.
