Today’s networks support applications that deliver text, audio, images and video, often in real time and with a high degree of interactivity, using a common infrastructure. More often than not, traffic is carried over packet-switched networks that treat all data the same, under what is known as best-effort service. Packet switching can achieve very high efficiency through statistical multiplexing of data from numerous sources; however, due to the very nature of packet switching, one should expect fluctuations in throughput, delay, reliability, etc., for any given flow. The greater the statistical multiplexing capabilities, the greater the efficiency and also the greater the variability of achieved performance; in this sense, best-effort service provides maximum efficiency with highly unpredictable service quality. Clearly, not all traffic flows are created equal. Interactive web-based applications tend to be very sensitive to throughput, while real-time voice and video are sensitive to delay and jitter, and traditional data applications such as e-mail and file transfers are fairly insensitive to fluctuations in performance. The concept of quality of service (QoS) has evolved from the realization that in networks that carry heterogeneous traffic it makes sense to treat specific classes of traffic according to their specific needs.

The quality of service (QoS) in networking is the process of managing network resources to reduce packet loss and to lower network jitter and latency. QoS has been widely used in traditional network and can also be implemented in the 5G standard based on a software-defined network (SDN). A traditional network carries several challenges, such as vendor dependency, the complexity of managing a large network, dynamically changing forwarding policies, and more. Software-defined networking is a new networking strategy designed to address the challenges of a traditional IP network, such as high levels of complexity and inability to adapt to the new quality of service requirements in a timely manner. The fundamental idea behind SDNs compared to the conventional networking paradigm is the creation of horizontally integrated systems through the separation of the control and the data plane while providing an increasingly sophisticated set of abstractions. Recently, various SDN-enabled QoS frameworks have emerged that offer many possibilities for network reconfiguration and high-level definition of policies. QoS requirements for 5G networks have been defined on the basis of three main categories of use cases: extreme mobile broadband (xMBB), massive machine type communications (mMTC) IoT/M2M devices, and highly reliable М2М-communication (ultra-reliable machine-type communications – uMTC). This paper analyzes and surveys the QoS based on the openflow protocol method and QoS based on open-source SDN controllers method in 5G network. In addition, we discuss various architectural issues of open-source SDN controllers network and examine their impact on the QoS. Furthermore, we outline the characteristics of the QoS parameters such as latency, availability, reliability, jitter, and bandwidth in the 5G network. Finally, the article discusses and compares parameters of the QoS in 5G determined by world’s leaders in 5G technology.

Resource allocation for machine-type communication (MTC) devices is one of the keys challenges in the 5G network as it affects the lifetime of battery powered devices and also the quality of service of the applications. MTC devices are battery restrained and cannot afford a lot of power consumption due to spectrum usage. In this paper, we propose a novel resource allocation algorithm termed threshold controlled access (TCA) protocol. We propose a novel technique of uplink resource allocation in which the devices make a decision of resource allocation blocks based on their battery status and related application’s power profile that eventually leads to required quality of service (QoS) metric. The first phase of the TCA algorithm selects the number of carriers to be allocated to a certain device for the better lifetime of low power MTC devices. In the second phase, the efficient solution is implemented through inducing a threshold value. A certain value of the threshold is selected through a mapping based on a QoS metric. The threshold enhances the selection of subcarriers for less powered devices, such as small e-health sensors. The algorithm is simulated for the physical layer of the 5G network. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is less complex and achieves better performance when compared to existing solutions in the literature.

HetNet (Heterogeneous Network) has been suggested for next age group wireless systems to meet the exceptional difficulties of advanced data rates. The specifications for various levels of QoS (Quality of Service) from various kinds of wireless requests and service areas are met. In this HetNet in to improve the QoSand SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio), many techniques have been performed to provide satisfactory outcomes. This paper gives a comparative survey on the QoS and various techniques used, which are used to enhance QoS.

In this article, the concepts of construction of the next generation networks are considered. The analysis of the main technological features that distinguish infocommunication services from the services of traditional communication networks was done. It is determined that the next generation network should provide the transmission of all types of media traffic and the distributed provision of an unlimited range of infocommunication services with the possibility of their scaling. For some infocommunication services, the order of packet arrival, packet delay and delay variation (jitter) are critical. It is necessary to guarantee the delivery of information such as speech, video and multimedia in real time with the minimum possible delay. For this purpose, the network must be implemented mechanisms to ensure the required quality of service (Quality of Service-QoS). There are two models to ensure guaranteed quality of service: integrated service of different types of traffic (IntServ) and differentiated services of different types of traffic (DiffServ). The expediency of the joint use of these two models has been proved, moreover, on the trunk sections of the network it is better to use the model of differentiated service of heterogeneous traffic, while using the RSVP protocol, the problem of resource reservation is solved for aggregated data flows. The mechanisms of traffic generation at the network domain boundary and processing algorithms of queue service have been determined. The minimum requirement which is presented for a queuing algorithm service that supports QoS functions is the ability to differentiate and define processing requirements for different packets. According to these parameters, the service algorithm must plan the order of transmission of queued packets. The frequency of service of packets of the same traffic stream determines the bandwidth allocated to this stream.
