Abstract: The present technology is generally directed to dynamically adding network resources based on an application function (AF) notification. The present technology can determine, by an AF of a service provider, a network congestion on a network, the network congestion indicating that network resources for servicing a user device using services of the service provider do not meet corresponding Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. Further, the present technology can transmit a notification by the AF to a core network of a network provider to request additional network resources to be allocated for servicing the user device, the network provider providing network connectivity for the user device to receive the services provided by the service provider.

Abstract: A private cellular management system detects that a device has connected to a private cellular network. The device is part of a device group that is associated with a policy applicable within an enterprise network and the private cellular network. The private cellular management system generates a determination corresponding to a policy effectiveness associated with the access policy based on different versions of the policy implemented in the enterprise and private cellular networks. The private cellular management system obtains an update to the access policy and applies this update for the device and other devices associated with the device group.

Abstract: A system and method of performing multi-layer client assurance in a private cellular network includes a plurality of assurance points within the network. The method includes receiving, by a network entity, a plurality of parameter sets from the plurality of assurance points. Each of the plurality of assurance points can be configured to obtain measurements from a portion of the private cellular network corresponding to a client assurance layer in a client assurance stack. The method can include combining a first parameter set from the plurality of parameter sets with a second parameter set from the plurality of parameter sets. The first parameter set can be associated with a first client assurance layer and the second parameter set is associated with a second client assurance layer. The method can include determining, based on the combined parameter set, a network service level corresponding to the client device.

Abstract: A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving a data packet transported on a backhaul link at a first network element; de-capsulating the data packet; identifying whether the data packet is an upstream data packet; identifying whether the data packet matches an internet protocol (IP) access control list (ACL) or a tunnel endpoint identifier; and offloading the data packet from the backhaul link. In more specific embodiment, the method can include identifying that the data packet does not match the IP ACL or the tunnel endpoint identifier; and communicating the data packet to a second network element. In other examples, the method can include identifying that the data packet is a downstream data packet; identifying a service to be performed for the data packet that cannot be performed at the first network element; and communicating the data packet to a second network element.

Abstract: Particular embodiments provide an access gateway that facilitates communication between a plurality of access technologies. The access gateway facilitates data communication with an access terminal through a bearer path. A radio resource manager is configured to provide radio resource management functions for the communications. The radio resource manager is decoupled from the bearer path and provides control of radio transmission characteristics for the bearer path to the gateway. Because the radio resource manager is not in the bearer path, the access gateway may be access technology agnostic. Thus, the access gateway does not need to have access-specific modules based on the radio technology for each bearer path.
Abstract translation: 具体实施例提供了便于多个接入技术之间的通信的接入网关。 接入网关便于通过承载路径与接入终端的数据通信。 无线资源管理器被配置为为通信提供无线电资源管理功能。 无线电资源管理器与载体路径解耦,并提供对网关承载路径的无线电传输特性的控制。 由于无线电资源管理器不在承载路径中,因此接入网关可能与无线技术无关。 因此,接入网关不需要基于用于每个承载路径的无线电技术的访问专用模块。

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer-readable media for reporting QoE of a UE, as measured and determined from the perspective of the UE to one or more core components of the cellular network to which the UE is attached. The QoE may then be used by the one or more core components for managing and adjusting, if necessary, the cellular services provided to the UE. In one aspect, a method includes determining, at a user device, a quality of experience (QoE) of user device connected to a cellular network and transmitting, via a non-access stratum (NAS) signaling, a value of the QoE from the user device to a core network element of the cellular network, wherein the core network element utilizes the QoE value to manage network access and a quality of service (QoS) of the user device.
