It hides the details of transport network to the service layer to support the separation of service control from transport function. It detects the resource status of transport network to secure a correct and reasonable usage of transport network resources. This accordingly ensures there are sufficient resources available to guarentee the appropriate level of QoS and avoid bandwidth and service stealing. The functional architecture, the entity involved and reference point, the access type and terminal, the resource control mode, the selection mechanism between functional entities, the interconnection between different domains, and the interaction between other transport control functions are the core study content of RAC.
