Abstract: Certain embodiments may relate to communication systems, and, for example, some embodiments may relate to multi-QoS level uplink grants. According to a first embodiment, a method may include transmitting, by a first network entity, one or more grants of one or more uplink resources to a second network entity. The one or more grants of one or more uplink resources includes one or more physical resource allocation parameters containing one or more logical channel groups. The method may further include receiving, by the first network entity, data from the second network entity allocated according to the one or more logical channel groups.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided herein to receive, from a source, performance requirements, and cause transmission, to a network, of a request to influence time sensitive communications (TSC) configuration parameters. For example, a method is provided to in response to the request to influence TSC configuration, receive, from the network, network configuration and radio access network (RAN) resource constraints and determine a quality of service (QoS) and the TSC configuration parameters to support a TSC data stream based on the performance requirements received from the source, the network configuration, and the RAN resource constraints. The method is further configured to cause transmission of the determined QoS and the TSC configuration parameters to the network and the source and in an instance the network accepts the determined QoS and the TSC configuration parameters, configure resources for the TSC data stream and continuously support service continuity.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product receive, at a network node of a communication network, information about an accumulated packet delay in the communication network. The method, apparatus and computer program product estimate next hop transport delay and estimate or measure a processing delay of the network node. The method, apparatus and computer program product update the accumulated packet delay by adding the next hop transport delay and the processing delay to the accumulated packet delay. The method, apparatus and computer program product cause transmission of information about the accumulated packet delay in a header of a packet carrying user data or a control packet in the communication network to a next hop node of the communication network.

Abstract: There is provided a method comprising: maintaining, by a network element of a source cell, a list of candidate target cells for a handover, the list comprising for each candidate target cell an indication of whether a handover to the candidate target cell is allowed or not; and upon receiving a handover request from a user equipment to a candidate target cell for which a handover is determined as allowable, triggering the handover to the candidate target cell without negotiating regarding the request with a network element associated with the candidate target cell.

Abstract: An approach is provided for receiving and transmitting data over a wireless network, while minimizing power consumption. A determination is made, as part of a discontinuous communication mechanism defining an on-period for permitting transmission of data over a network, whether a resource allocation has been made to a user equipment for communicating over the network. If the resource allocation has been made, generating a keep-awake message to instruct the user equipment to extend the on-period.
