    摘要: This disclosure describes techniques for predicting and accommodating for outages in a satellite network using crowdsourced data. An example method includes receiving outage data indicating first outages experienced by first endpoints in a first geographical region. The first outages, for instance, include interruptions in communication between first satellites and the first endpoints. The example method further includes predicting, based on the outage data, a second outage comprising an interruption in communication between at least one second satellite and a second endpoint in a second geographical region. Further, the example method includes causing the second endpoint to transmit user data over a secondary network in advance of the second outage.

    摘要: A user equipment (UE) may receive data, for transmission, at a buffer of the UE, such as when data is generated by an application of the UE. The UE may periodically transmit a buffer status report (BSR) to indicate an amount of data that is present at the buffer of the UE, among other information. Some aspects described herein enable enhanced buffer status reporting. For example, a UE may dynamically generate a buffer status report table based at least in part on a set of configured parameters (e.g., that a network node may signal to the UE).

    摘要: Embodiments include methods for a first network node of a wireless network. Such methods include sending, to a second network node in the wireless network, a first message comprising an indication of predicted future adjustments of mobility-related settings, of the first network node, for mobility of users between a coverage area of the first network node and an adjacent coverage area of the second network node. Such methods include receiving, from the second network node in response to the first message, a second message indicating one or more of the following: acknowledgement, confirmation, or rejection of the predicted future adjustments; and corresponding adjustments of mobility-related settings for the second network node. Other embodiments include complementary methods for a second network node and a third network node, as well as network nodes configured to perform such methods.

    摘要: Embodiments are directed towards systems and methods for selecting, in a Fifth Generation (5G) cellular telecommunication network, a User Plane Function (UPF) of a plurality of UPFs on which to anchor a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session of a new user equipment (UE) newly appearing on the cellular telecommunication network. The selection is based on: a location of the new UE; a plurality of current loads for each UPF of the plurality of UPFs; a predicted UE load of the new UE based on network data analytics; and predicted UPF loads of the plurality of UPFs as a function of time considering the predicted UE load based on network data analytics from the Network Data Analytics Function. In the UPF selection, the Session Management Function (SMF) gives higher priority to shorter term predicted loads than longer term predicted loads.

    摘要: The described technology is generally directed towards adaptive spectrum as a service, in which spectrum can be dynamically allocated to adapt to demand for wireless capacity. The demand for wireless capacity can be based on monitoring system state, and/or proactively predicted based on other system state such as time of day. Reallocated spectrum can be monitored for performance, to converge spectrum allocation to a more optimal state. Allocated spectrum can be relocated, increased or decreased, including by the use of citizens band radio service spectrum or other spectrum. Currently allocated spectrum can be adapted into modified allocated spectrum by an application program (xApp) coupled to a radio access network intelligent controller (RIC), a citizens broadband radio service device, a domain proxy service, and/or a user device. A user device can determine and request bandwidth, with spectrum allocated in response.

    摘要: A load balancing policy determining method and apparatus are provided including: A first prediction module obtains first information of at least one first base station, where the first information is used to perform load prediction on the first base station, and the first information includes information about a first cell of the first base station and information about a first terminal device located in the first cell. The first prediction module determines load prediction information of the at least one first base station based on the first information of the at least one first base station and obtains load prediction information of at least one second base station, and further determines a load policy of the at least one first base station based on the load prediction information of the at least one first base station and the load prediction information of the at least one second base station.
