Abstract
A serving gateway facing a radio access network receives packets, applies deep packet inspect to classify the packet into a predetermined application class, and inserts a marker identifying the class and a QoS associated with the class. The serving gateway assigns the packets to a queue within a default bearer based on the class and the QoS marker. The serving gateway transfers packets through the bearer by processing the queues in accordance with their priority.
