摘要： A mechanism to export user equipment (UE) and/or bearer state information from a E-UTRAN Node B (eNB) mobility management entity (MME) and combine this state information with globally recognizable identifiers for the UE and/or bearer. The state information is collected by an external server and provided to application service providers (ASPs) and wireless service providers (WSP) to more effectively deliver content to the UE by adjusting throughput. The mechanism involves only a single query to the MME, for every UE and/or bearer, as opposed to one inquiry for every state information update on a per UE and/or per bearer basis, in order to not overwhelm network traffic.

摘要： A metric of cell congestion is determined using an average physical resource block rate that is expected to be allocated for a very active user equipment bearer that is a persistent average rate. The average physical resource block rate is mapped to congestion levels and this information is exported to an application function or a radio access network function in order to mitigate congestion. An average bearer throughput for the user equipment can be calculated based on the average physical resource block rate.

摘要： The present invention provides a method of data path switching. Embodiments of the method include transmitting a packet from a node in a communication system during hand off of a mobile node from a source access network to a target access network. The packet includes an end marker that indicates that the packet is the last packet to be transmitted during the hand off over a source link between the mobile node and an anchor node via the source access network during the hand off. Embodiments of the method also include switching, at the node, a transmission data path from the source link to a target link between the mobile node and the anchor node via the target access network following transmission of the packet including the end marker.

摘要： The present disclosure generally discloses a scheduling control capability for controlling scheduling of transmissions where adaptive bitrate streaming is used for delivery of content (e.g., video content or other types of content which may be streamed using adaptive bitrate streaming) from source devices to end devices. The scheduling control capability may be configured to control scheduling of transmissions of adaptive bitrate streaming flows based on priority levels assigned to the adaptive bitrate streaming flows. The scheduling control capability may be configured to dynamically control the priority levels assigned to the adaptive bitrate streaming flows. The scheduling control capability may be configured to dynamically control the priority levels assigned to the adaptive bitrate streaming flows, for use in controlling the scheduling of transmissions of the adaptive bitrate streaming flows, in manner for improving user quality-of-experience, in a manner for improving spectral efficiency, or the like, as well as various combinations thereof.

摘要： An application type of a bearer is classified by computing statistics vectors of bearer metrics and locating points on a label map corresponding to the statistics vectors to obtain application type information. The application type information is exported to a network node to control an operation of application. The bearer metrics include bearer identifier information and bearer condition information, where the bearer condition information includes channel condition information and cell congestion level information. The bearers are paired, such that uplink and downlink bearers for a same application are identified, so that paired bearers are classified together. The label map is produced using previously classified bearer information to calculate cluster centroids and cluster regions that define portions of the map for particular application types. The bearer is classified by determining which cluster region is closest to points on the label map that are associated with the statistics vectors for a particular bearer.
