Abstract
The uplink data rate is dynamically adjusted in a mobile station according to the mobile station's ability to meet QoS (quality of service) requirements of applications executing on the mobile station. In an embodiment, the transition probabilities received from a mobile network are first compensated according to the ability to meet QoS requirements, and the uplink data rate is then computed based on the compensated transition probabilities. According to another aspect of the present invention, the base station dynamically adjusts the transition probabilities based on delay bound requirement of packets and/or average delay or data flow rate requirement.
