Section: 5.7.3.2 Resource Type
Content: The resource type determines if dedicated network resources related to a QoS Flow-level Guaranteed Flow Bit Rate (GFBR) value are permanently allocated (e.g. by an admission control function in a radio base station). GBR QoS Flows are therefore typically authorized "on demand" which requires dynamic policy and charging control. A GBR QoS Flow uses either the GBR resource type or the Delay-critical GBR resource type. The definition of PDB and PER are different for GBR and Delay-critical GBR resource types, and the MDBV parameter applies only to the Delay-critical GBR resource type. A Non-GBR QoS Flow may be pre-authorized through static policy and charging control. A Non-GBR QoS Flow uses only the Non-GBR resource type.
