ETSI STF (Special Task Force) 229 Determination of user’s QoS criteria for Internet Access in Europe
Objective and Scope • To determine QoS criteria that are of concern to users • Obtain the above for Europe • Confine these to dial up and broadband unless wireless can also be accommodated • Build the above from work already carried out to a state to enable ETSI to develop an ETSI Guide
Methodology • Identify and evaluate work already carried out in the field • Discuss with regulators, ISPs and user groups in a number of European countries • Arrive at a consensus opinion • Arrive at a set of QoS criteria • Test above criteria on European population
Progress to date • Discussed with ISPs, regulators and user groups in 7 European countries • Arrived at a set of QoS criteria • Surveyed a European population • We are now in a position to commence definitions work
Issues to be addressed at definitions stage • Decide on the groupings of QoS parameters into user friendly sets • Decide on criteria for ‘dial up’ and ‘broadband’ and if ‘wireless' is to be included • Decide on the objective and subjective parameters for each criterion
Issues to be addressed at definitions stage (continued) 4. Take into account inputs from participants during discussions with 7 country representatives and others 5. Word the document so that it can be used by mandatory means as well as on a voluntary basis by any country 6. Any other issues identified during the definitions stage
