ABSTRACT:
Level of service information for a given user of a radio access network (10) is determined at a Packet Data Serving Node (18) and provided to the radio access network for use in determining a particular level of service to provide to the given user. The level of service can comprise an absolute level of service (such as a maximum data rate to be accorded the user) or a dynamic relative level of service (such as information that is used to compare competing users to determine a particular current apportioning of communications resources). In one embodiment, the level of service information is provided to the radio access network via a modified A11 registration update message.
