A method may include configuring a first network element and a user plane function to expose port information of a first network element and a user plane function to a backhaul network. Associated identifiers of the first network element and the user plane function may be received from a second network element. Second stream requirements may be determined in 5GS for the streams transmitted through 5GS. First stream requirements may be derived for a stream to be transmitted between a talker and a listener, and talker and listener identifiers which are the identifiers of the first network element or the user plane function for the backhaul centralized network configurator. Configurations are received of the first network element and the user plane function. Additionally, a protocol data unit session modification procedure may be triggered for the stream.

A method for configuring transmission order of uplink data, the method performed by a radio equipment (“RE”) of an access node. The RE has a RE controller (“REC”)-RE interface that communicatively couples the RE with a REC of the access node. The method includes receiving instructions from the REC that indicate a scheduling prioritization for transmission by the RE of uplink data between the RE and the REC over the REC-RE interface. The uplink data can be received by the RE on the radio interface. The method can further include transmitting the uplink data on the REC-RE interface according to the instructions, resulting in the scheduling prioritization of the uplink data.

A sequence sending method and an apparatus, to reduce a probability of a sequence conflict. The method includes: a terminal device sends, in a first time period, a first sequence to a network device, where the first sequence is determined based on a first parameter; the terminal device performs scrambling processing on a second sequence based on the first parameter, to generate a scrambled second sequence; the terminal device sends, in a second time period, the scrambled second sequence to the network device; the terminal device performs scrambling processing on an N.sup.th sequence based on an (N−1).sup.th parameter, to generate a scrambled N.sup.th sequence, where an (N−1).sup.th sequence is determined based on the (N−1).sup.th parameter, and N is an integer greater than 2; and the terminal device sends, in an N.sup.th time period, the scrambled N.sup.th sequence to the network device.

The system obtains an event report identifying a UE, and a location of the UE. The system obtains a primary service plan provided to the UE, and a second service plan, where the second service plan is available to the UE at the location of the UE. The system obtains a first measurement of a parameter indicating a first QoS provided to the UE, and a second measurement of the parameter indicating a second QoS provided to multiple UEs, where the multiple UEs are proximate to the UE. The system compares the first and the second measurement to determine whether the first QoS is lower than the second QoS. Upon determining that the first QoS is lower, the system confirms that the second service plan is likely to improve the QoS. Upon confirming, the system sends a request to change the primary service plan to the second service plan.

Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for variably selecting and managing a quality of service framework within a network. A network data store may be accessed to obtain information indicating current network conditions, network policies, and/or device scripts. This information may be used to determine whether and when to allocate network resources, such as bandwidth, for particular services within the network to implement quality of service based on current network/link conditions.

Disclosed are methods, apparatus and systems for resource allocation when configurable bandwidths are available. One method includes performing a first transmission using a first set of resources in a first bandwidth, and subsequently performing a second transmission using a second set of resources in a second bandwidth, where the first bandwidth is greater than the second bandwidth, where the first and second set of resources are identified by a first and second value, respectively, and where a bit representation of the first value is a zero-padded version of a bit representation of the second value on either the most significant bit (MSB) or the least significant bit (LSB).

A method, base station (BS), user equipment (UE), apparatus, and computer program product for wireless communication are provided. A BS and a UE may communicate using a narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) communication system. However, a frequency, time, and/or power associated with transmission of a SIB1-NB on a non-anchor carrier may not be configured for NB-IoT. In some aspects, the BS may determine parameters, such as a time domain location parameter, a frequency domain location parameter, a quantity of repetitions, a power boosting parameter, and/or the like for a transmission in NB-IoT. In some aspects, a UE may determine to transmit a connection request message on a different carrier than a random access channel message.

The present invention utilizes an application which is loaded onto the mobile devices of attendees who will be attending festivals, concerts, etc, where the large crowds attending the event will create wireless and mobile network congestion. The application will enable the attendees and promoters to communicate without the need for a network connection. Communication and instructions are communicated between attendees and promoters using encoded network signals.

A method and apparatus for managing network loading and adjusting admission, and/or congestion and service types based on real-time analytics in an enterprise wireless communication network that includes Base Stations/Access Points (BS/APs) in communication with a number of User Equipment devices (UEs) within the coverage area at a campus location. The system dynamically learns the parameterizations for the control system, and adapts the parameters as the network usage evolves, which is useful for an efficient self-managed network. Such a system can provide a greater QoS across users and other efficiencies. The system simplifies deployment at the enterprise's campus locations because load heatmaps and service patterns are learned based on the actual campus locations.
