Abstract: This invention concerns quality of service (QoS) mapping in wireless space. QoS maps represent measurements, or predictions, of one or more quality of service metrics in the space. The maps are useful in the management of wireless communications systems. The map is comprised of several layers of information visit e at the same time. The a first layer shows the physical features within the space. Additional layers indicate the value of respective quality of service metrics at locations indicated by the first layer. Users of the communication network can contract with the service provider to have the selected services provided at respective selected service levels by using the map.
