摘要:
Apparatus, and an associated method, for allocating resources at a target cell, or cells, of a cellular communication system. Determinations are made of the positioning and of the velocity, of a mobile station. Predictions of a target cell and when a handover is likely to be requested are made. Responsive thereto, a request is made prior to a handover request for the allocation of resources to permit the continued effectuation of a communication service upon handover of communications to the target cell.
摘要:
Apparatus, and an associated method, facilitates service degradation in a radio communication system, such as a cellular communication system. A service degradation profile is created and includes values of QoS (quality of service) level values. If communication at levels corresponding to the values of the desired QoS level parameters is unavailable, efforts are made to effectuate, or maintain communication at quality levels corresponding to values of at least first QoS level parameters values. Service degradation thereby occurs pursuant to a selected profile, reducing the need for service renegotiations and reducing the possibility that an abrupt termination of a communication session might occur.
