cell and when they can try to access• Access Classes (0-9, 11-15 on USIM)1Admission control (and pre-emption)• Determines which users are served and the type

of service offered• ARP (Allocation and Retention Priority)2Traffic Prioritization (Scheduling)• Determines the quality of service (throughput and

latency) for the offered services in use• QCI (QoS Class Identifier)3
