The paper deals with the performance analysis of a recently proposed QoS Management Architecture (QMA) for a communication infrastructure used in an emergency scenario. The performances are evaluated in terms of the most significant QoS parameters by means of a measurement testbed specifically set up in laboratory to emulate a realistic emergency scenario where different operators have to cooperate during the rescue procedure. The QoS parameters are assessed both in absence and presence of the QMA, considering several traffic types. The comparison of the achieved results shows the effectiveness of the considered QMA.
