Abstract:
Multimedia services are among the most developed segments of services. User behavior is changing with a significant number being very active. They utilize services that produce large amounts of data traffic in uplinks. Consequently, this is quite a new phenomenon that service providers should consider. The Quality of Service (QoS) of real-time multimedia services is crucial for all users, and research has been devoted to satisfying these requirements. Although fulfilling the QoS requirements is challenging, most of the research has focused on the downlink. The goal of this study was to focus on uplinks because this direction is crucial to modern attractive multimedia services such as streaming of videos and video gaming. This study proposed a solution that prioritizes traffic at the end of the user terminal and fixes the issue with real-time multimedia services. This effectively eliminates the first bottleneck in the entire system, regardless of the access network. The investigated solution is independent of the type of access network because it is implemented at the user terminal.
