Abstract: The present invention provides a device for providing Control Plane (CP) and/or User Plane (UP) analytics. The device is configured to obtain information related to a resource and/or a change of a resource related to CP and/or UP; perform an analysis based on the obtained information; and generate data based on the analysis. This invention also provides a management plane entity, in particular an OAM. The management plane entity is configured to provide information related to a resource, wherein the resource is related to a Control Plane (CP) and/or User Plane (UP) to the device for providing analytics.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to End-to-End (E2E) Quality of Service (QoS) monitoring for strict E2E performance requirements in 5G networks including Network Slices (NSs) or Network Sub Slices (NSSs). The present disclosure provides a a control plane entity for obtaining NS Instance (NSI) data for analytics from a management plane entity, and a management plane entity to provide NSI data to a control plane entity. The control plane entity is configured to request NSI topology information from the management plane entity, obtain at least one first set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) or at least one set of measurements, and generate the data for analytics based on the requested NSI topology information and at least one of the obtained first set of KPIs or the obtained one at least one set of measurements.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a slice monitor for monitoring slices programmed by a slice owner and deployed by an orchestrator in the control and data planes of a communication network. The slice monitor comprises multiple databases containing different types of information, selects the probes to monitor each slice in the control plane or the data plane and instantiates the selected probes as well as a single-slice monitoring device specific to each slice. For optimization, the slice monitor configures the content of its databases by communicating through multiple interfaces with different actors such as the slice owner, the owner of the orchestrator and the owner of itself. Using alarm handlers and a reconfiguration engine, the slice monitor together with the single-slice monitoring device can detect and compensate for possible violations in the service-level agreement by reconfiguring the slice. If the compensation fails, the slice monitor requests the orchestrator for reconfiguration.
