Abstract

A method comprising modifying a plurality of access channel (AC) probe parameters using a plurality of intra-user service classes, and accessing an AC using the modified AC probe parameters. The disclosure includes a communications component comprising a processor configured to implement a method comprising recognizing a registration request from an access terminal (AT), wherein the registration request causes a quality of service (QoS) profile comprising an inter-user QoS class for the AT to be requested, retrieving at least one intra-user access service parameter based on the inter-user class, and sending the intra-user access service parameter to the AT. The disclosure also includes a mobile access network comprising an access node (AN) in communication with a plurality of ATs, wherein the AN differentiates service for the ATs based on inter-user service classes and intra-user service class types.
