    Abstract: In the 5G core network (CN), aggregates of data packets are mapped to different quality of service (QoS) flows as indicated by a QoS marking in the header of a protocol used to transport the packets through the CN. Different service data flows (SDF) through the CN may belong the same QoS flow. Described herein are methods and apparatus by which the 5G CN and RAN may more flexibly handle individual SDFs belonging to the same QoS flow in order to obtain greater throughput and/or lower latency.

    Abstract: Technology for a user equipment (UE), operable to generate an enhanced buffer status report (eBSR) is disclosed. The UE can identify packets for uplink transmission. The UE can filter the packets for uplink transmission, to identify a number of small packets pending for transmission and a number of larger packets, relative to the small packets, that are pending for transmission in the uplink transmission. The UE can encode the eBSR for transmission to a next generation node B (gNB), wherein the eBSR includes information identifying the number of small packets pending for transmission. The UE can have a memory interface configured to send to a memory the number of small packets pending for transmission.

    Abstract: Systems and methods provide cross-layer bearer splitting and cross-RAT retransmission in a RAN-based WLAN/WWAN integrated network. A link aggregation transmitter is configured to receive, from a WLAN stack lower layer protocol, a WLAN transmission confirmation signal and a WLAN congestion status, and to receive, from a WWAN stack lower layer protocol, a WWAN transmission confirmation signal and a WWAN congestion status. The link aggregation transmitter dynamically splits the bearer traffic across the WWAN link and the WLAN link based at least in part on the WLAN transmission confirmation signal, the WLAN congestion status, and the WWAN congestion status.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for bearer splitting among multiple radio links are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) may be communicatively coupled to an Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) Node B (eNB) by multiple radio links (e.g., an LTE link and a WLAN link). A transmitter may dynamically determine a splitting policy for how to split traffic among each link (e.g., what proportion to send over each link). In some embodiments, the transmitter may determine the splitting policy explicitly based on lower layer metrics. Alternatively, or in addition, each radio access interface may request data when a transmission opportunity becomes available, and the splitting policy may be determined implicitly from the data requests. For a UE, the splitting policy may be determined with network assistance, which may include a resource allocation for an LTE link, a probability of successful transmission over a WLAN link, and/or the like.
