| 单词 | QoS (Quality of Service) |
| 释义 | QoS (Quality of Service) A measure of parameters that affect the level of performance a network offers a specific type of traffic. QoS parameters include access priority, bandwidth availability, latency, jitter, and packet loss. Toll quality, real-time compressed and uncompressed voice and video require fairly immediate network access, guaranteed availability of bandwidth throughout the call, low latency, zero jitter, and zero loss. E-mail is at the opposite end of the QoS spectrum, as it is highly tolerant of a low level of priority; high levels of latency, jitter, and loss; and does not require any bandwidth availability guarantees during the course of a mail transfer. QoS also must ensure that granting a QoS level to one traffic type or call does not violate the data flow requirements of another traffic type or call.The circuit-switched public switched telephone network (PSTN) offers all applications the highest level of QoS. Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) offers multiple QoS levels appropriate for different traffic types. Frame relay, Internet Protocol (IP), and Ethernet networks can employ various priority mechanisms to offer differential grade of service (GoS) levels, but cannot guarantee QoS. See also ATM, compression, Ethernet, frame relay, GoS, IP, jitter, latency, loss, and PSTN. |
