    Abstract: In selected embodiments, on-premises equipment of a cellular network provides local breakout functionality so that user plane data packets (PDNs/PDUs) are routed between the home/enterprise network and the Internet directly, bypassing a cloud-based core of the cellular network. The UE's control traffic is still routed to/from the core. The core may be an Evolved Packet Core (EPC) in a 4G LTE network, or a 5G Core (5GC) in a 5G network. The UE's IP addresses may be assigned by the core, or locally, by the on-premises equipment. Providing the IP context from the on-premises network allows the UE to connect to local devices, e.g., printers, disc raids, gaming and streaming nodes, and other local devices. The local IP context also pushes the complexity of the EPC core deployment to the cloud while reducing the overhead of cloud processing that comes with user plane data processing.

    Abstract: Various embodiments of a method and apparatus for introducing a new service are disclosed. In some embodiments, a first Metric Setting (i.e., a Packet Delay Budget (PDB)) is set based on a type associated with the new service, and initial values of the first Metric Setting is also chosen based on the type of the new service. Network conditions are allowed to vary, and performance parameters are measured, while keeping the first performance matric at a fixed value. The other Metric Settings are set based on the measured performance parameters. The process of varying the network conditions, measuring the performance parameters and setting the Metric Settings based on the measurements are repeated until a set of parameters is arrived at, which optimizes the network's performance. Then the PDB is varied, and the process is repeated to optimize the PRB (Priority Resource Block) utilization.
