QoS Parameter
Emulating circuit switching Cell rate is constant with time Sensitive to cell delay
Traffic rate can vary with time Utilizes statistical multiplexing
Variable Bit Rate Real Similar to VBR-NRT Time (VBR-RT) Does not require a timing relationship to be maintained end-toend Available Bit Rate (ABR)
