So, the differentiated QoS model in the mobile space does

not aim to obtain additional revenue sources from third parties.

Rather, it is a method of managing the available networks more

effectively and being rewarded by the customer for doing so.

The network dilemma

The development of the mobile network was and still is a

very costly undertaking given initial investments for build out

and operational maintenance for several network technologies

deployed in parallel. Not to mention the need to further

enhance these technologies (e.g. EDGE and HSxPA) over time.

Eventually, new technologies will enter the markets that also

require investment for additional build-up since it is unlikely

that the existing radio technologies will vanish in mid term.

But in a market where the revenue from minutes of use is

decreasing, budgets for investment in the network are likely to

fall as operators find it increasingly difficult to justify these

investments on a RoI (Return on Investment) basis.

While core network systems currently have more than sufficient

capacity, the radio access network is beginning to get extremely

crowded in some areas.
