7、ion Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff ques

8、tions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendation

9、s on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation,

However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or ap

The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance wit

These words are: “MUST“ This word or the adjective “REQUIRED“ means that the item is an absolute requirement of this Recommendation. “MUST NOT“ This phrase means that the item is an absolute prohibition of this Recommendation. “SHOULD“ This word or the adjective “RECOMMENDED“

43、means that there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances to ignore this item, but the full implications should be understood and the case carefully weighed before choosing a different course. “SHOULD NOT“ This phrase means that there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances wh

One vendor may choose t

Resources may be constrained in seg

46、ments of the network, requiring allocation of resources in the network. The scope of this Recommendation is to define the Quality of Service architecture for the “Access“ portion of the IPCablecom network. The access portion of the network is defined to be between the multimedia terminal adapter (MT

47、A) and the cable modem termination system (CMTS), including the DOCSIS network. This Recommendation also recognizes that per-flow reservations 4 ITU-T Rec. J.163 (12/2007) may be required within the customer premises, and the protocols developed herein address this potential need. Although some segm

48、ents of the backbone network may require resource reservation to provide adequate quality of service, we consider the protocols for backbone resource management to be outside the scope of this Recommendation. Resources are allocated on the DOCSIS network for individual flows associated with each ses

49、sion of an application, per subscriber, on an authorized and authenticated basis. A DQoS session, or simply a session, is defined by this Recommendation to be a single bidirectional data flow between two clients. When a multimedia application needs multiple bidirectional data flows (e.g., one for voice and a separate for video), separate DQoS sessions are established for each. Applications may use only half of the sessions bidirectional data flow, thereby providing send-only or receive-only services. For example, in a typical voic
