Abstract:
A method for a wireless communication device of running a software application is disclosed. The method comprises determining, at the wireless communication device, an expected downlink data amount of the software application and acquiring a downlink data amount to communication state mapping threshold value. The method also comprises comparing the expected downlink data amount to the threshold value and sending, to a network node, a desired communication state request based on the comparison. A method for a network node is also disclosed. The method comprises sending a downlink data amount to communication state mapping threshold value to a wireless communication device. The method also comprises receiving a desired communication state request from the wireless communication device and determining a communication state of the wireless communication device based on the received desired communication state request. Corresponding computer program products, arrangements, communication devices and network nodes are also disclosed.
