RE: [802.21] How to get LINK BW/SPEED



Hi Daniel,

Our QoS proposal aims at providing such information. In a nutshell, an
MIH User (e.g., a Mobility Management application or policy engine)
should be able to know the characteristics of the link layer in terms of
the QoS that can be provided. This was in essence the intention with our
QoS contribution presented in Denver and that we will be discussing once
again this coming Thursday during the next 802.21 telecon.
 
Regards,
Ulises

Subject: [802.21] How to get LINK BW/SPEED

Within our spec. there are several parameters/premitives
to get LINK specific information such as Available BW,
SPEED, BER, etc... I am wondering how to get these
information on the local stack. Is it from MAC/PHY of
each standard (I.g., Supported Rate of 802.11) ? or 
do we need any extension or modification along with 
21 premitives ? I need to get accurate and dynamic
LINK information when in motion...It seems a bit
implementation issues though...

Thanks in advance.
