1. An electronic device comprising: a processor; memory coupled to the processor; a network interface module communicably coupled to the processor and the memory; and a data prioritization subsystem stored in the memory and executed by the processor, wherein the processor in conjunction with the data prioritization subsystem and the network interface module is configured to: determine that data of a first application of the electronic device has a higher priority than data of a second application of the electronic device, wherein both the data of the first application and the data of the second application have a same quality control indicator (QCI) rating; receive a message from a communication network, wherein the message includes information about a data radio bearer (DRB) channel assigned to the data of the first application and the data of the second application, the DRB channel having an associated first set of priority parameters; establish, based on the DRB channel, for each protocol layer of a communication protocol stack, an application transport bearer (ATB) channel having a second set of priority parameters, wherein the second set of priority parameters are higher in priority than the first set of priority parameters; associate the data of the first application to the respective ATB channel at each protocol layer; and prioritize, for sending over the communication network, the data of the first application over the data of the second application at each protocol layer.
