Uplink QoE is a high-tech, policy based Quality of Service (QoS) solution developed by ThinkPalm Technologies. The project was targeted at providing Quality of Experience (QoE) to selected users in a Wi-Fi basic service set. Uplink QoE extends the existing QoS system running in the wireless distribution network of Access Points to the egress traffic of wireless stations such as Android smartphones as per the IEEE 802.11e standard, resulting in an end to end QoS network.

Business Need

Our customer, a giant in the networking industry, aspired for the inclusion of two critical components in the solution – Base QOS and Policy Integration. Base QOS realizes the classification of egress traffic into IEEE 802.11E categories, uniquely identified by the 5-tuple fields. Policy-integration facility at the client side receives the QoE policy pushed from the Access Points.
