摘要:
A circuit (2) and method employing logic circuitry (30) and memory (40) identifies a reverse link limited channel (80). The logic circuitry (30) identifies a reverse link limited channel based on determining that an access probe failure occurred on a channel (64). The logic circuitry (30) causes the memory to store reverse link limited channel data (80) in response to the logic circuitry (30) determining that the access probe failure occurred. The reverse link limited channel data (80), for example, may be a channel identification associated with the channel (64), a base station identification associated with the channel (64), a location identification of the circuit (2) or any data suitable for identifying and adapting dynamically to the reverse link limited channel.

A system, devices and procedures for providing QoS monitoring in a 5G network are described. The QoS monitoring is per QoS flow per UE or GTP-U path QoS monitoring. A SMF sends a request to a UPF and NG-RAN to report UL/DL packet delay and RTT between the UPF and a UE or an N3 and N9 interface, along with thresholds for reporting the measurements. The UPF sends a report containing the measurements when the threshold is met. The delays include average, minimum and maximum packet delays. The request also indicates a state of QoS monitoring, S-NSSAI and 5QI to monitor, whether event-based/periodic/session release-based QoS monitoring reporting per QoS flow per UE is supported, minimum waiting time between consecutive reports for event-triggered QoS monitoring reporting, and a period to report the measured packet delay.

Systems and methods of providing performance measurements are described. The performance measurements reflect the performance of NF service management, PFD management, UE policy association, QoS flow release and handovers. Raw performance data is collected from one or more NFs and then measurement data results are provided to an NF measurement consumer. The measurement data results is used to diagnose ongoing issues impacting the performance of the mobile network and predict any potential issues.

Methods, apparatuses, and systems are described related to generating and using a user equipment (UE) location distribution in a wireless communication network. In embodiments, an evolved Node B (eNB) may determine an angle of arrival (AoA) and a timing advance (Tadv) for individual UEs of a plurality of UEs that are in a connected mode with the eNB. The eNB may assign the individual UEs to one of a plurality of bins to generate a UE location distribution. Individual bins of the plurality of bins may correspond to a range of values for the AoA and a range of values for the Tadv to indicate a physical location of the corresponding UEs. The eNB may transmit the UE location distribution to a network management entity, which may adjust one or more parameters of the eNB, based on the UE location distribution, using a capacity and coverage optimization (CCO) function.
摘要:
A network management device and method for coordination of self-optimization functions in a wireless network. A network management device for coordination of self-optimization functions includes one or more processors and an interface. The interface communicates with a plurality of enhanced node Bs (eNodeBs). The interface is arranged to receive a request to change a coverage or a capacity of an enhanced node B (eNodeB). The interface is further arranged to transmit a query to the eNodeB to obtain a self-optimizing network (SON) coordination state of the eNodeB. The one or more processors are arranged to determine whether to grant or deny the request based on a coordination policy and the SON coordination state.

Methods, apparatuses, and systems are described related to retrieving data from a wireless local area network (WLAN) access point (AP). In embodiments, an element manager may include an integration reference point (IRP) agent to receive data from the WLAN AP in the first format. Mapping circuitry of the element manager may convert the data from the first format to a second format to be used by an IRP manager that manages a Long Term Evolution Advance (LTE-A) network. The IRP agent may send the data to the IRP manager in the second format. The data may include, for example, performance monitoring data such as a value of one or more counters and/or a status of one or more alarms maintained by the WLAN AP. Accordingly, one or more components of the LTE-A network may monitor the performance of the WLAN AP.

Techniques to manage energy savings for interoperable radio access technology (RAT) networks are described. An apparatus may comprise a processing circuit to execute an energy management application to manage energy consumption for one or more RAT networks, the energy management application comprising a distributed energy management component operative to manage energy saving states for one or more network resources of a single RAT network, the distributed energy management component to receive one or more energy saving decision parameters from a network resource profile associated with a network resource of the single RAT network, determine whether to switch the network resource to one of multiple energy saving states based on the one or more energy saving decision parameters, and send an energy control directive to instruct the network resource to switch energy saving states. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe device, methods, computer-readable media and system configurations for coordinating a plurality of self-optimization operations, such as an energy-saving management operation and a capacity and coverage optimization operation, to reduce conflicts between changes to configuration parameters of a wireless network access node caused by the self-optimization operations. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

A system to protect MAC control messages is presented. In one embodiment, the system comprises a processor, a memory coupled to the processor, and a communication device coupled to the processor to communicate wirelessly over multiple sub-channels in an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) wireless network. The communication device is operable to determine that a MAC control message is protected if an indicator within the MAC control message is set. The communication device validates, if the indicator is set, integrity of the MAC control message in conjunction with a CMAC (cipher-message authentication code) tuple concatenated with the MAC control message.
