This paper considers the support of real-time applications to mobile hosts in an integrated services packet network. We have proposed a service model for mobile hosts that can support adaptive applications which can withstand a wide range of available bandwidth, as well as applications which require mobility independent service guarantees. We describe an admission control scheme and a reservation protocol for implementing this service model. Our admission control scheme achieves high utilization of network resources.
