A first device may include one or more processors. The one or more processors may be configured to wirelessly receive, via a transceiver from a second device, a first frame. The one or more processors may be configured to identify one or more traffic identifiers from a first field of the first frame. The one or more processors may be configured to generate a second frame including buffer status data of one or more wireless traffic streams corresponding to the one or more traffic identifiers. The one or more processors may be configured to wirelessly transmit, via the transceiver, the generated second frame to the second device.

There is provided a method at a first network node, comprising: receiving, from a second network node, a message comprising a requested quality of service (QoS) profile and one or more alternative QoS profiles, wherein the QoS profiles are associated with a communication with a user equipment; determining that the requested QoS profile cannot be provided by the first network node for a communication between the first network node and the user equipment; determining that at least one of the one or more alternative QoS profiles can be provided by the first network node for a communication between the first network node and the user equipment; transmitting, to the second network node, an indication that an alternative QoS profile can be provided by the first network node; and, transmitting, to the second network node, an indication for configuring the user equipment based on the requested QoS profile.

A communication device controls a first communication flow performed by a first terminal and a second communication flow performed by a second terminal. Both of the first communication flow and the second communication flow pass through a sharing section, and the second communication flow has a higher priority than a priority of the first communication flow. The communication device acquires a communication delay in the sharing section; acquires a rated delay of the second communication flow, the rated delay is a communication delay allowed to the second communication flow; and limits input of data from the first communication flow and the second communication flow to the sharing section based on a comparison result between the communication delay of the sharing section and the rated delay.

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for latency evaluation and management resolution are provided. A fingerprint for traffic flow over a communication network from an application executing on a device to a multi-access edge (MEC) server instance hosted by a MEC platform may be identified. The fingerprint may be used to track the traffic flow between the application and the MEC server in order to measure round trip time latencies of the traffic flow. In response to a round trip time latency violating a latency management policy, segment latencies along segments of a communication travel path of the traffic flow from the device to the MEC platform may be measured. A management resolution function may be performed based upon one or more of the segment latencies exceeding a threshold.

An apparatus and system of collecting and reporting measurements for an Edge Application Server and 5.sup.th generation core network (5GC) network functions (NFs) that impact EAS performance are described. An application service provider (ASP) receives EAS performance measurements from edge computing service provider (ECSP) management system. The ECSP management system receives from the PLMN management system performance measurements from the 5GC NF that impact edge computing applications. The measurements are used to evaluate the end-to-end EAS performance, and determine actions to mitigate any issues based thereon.

A device, a system, and a method for transmissions during a restricted Target Wake Time (rTWT) Service Period (SP) are disclosed. In an embodiment, the device includes a wireless network interface device implemented on one or more integrated circuits (ICs), where the wireless network interface device is configured to transmit a beacon on a first link that indicates an rTWT SP for the first link, transmit a frame prior to a wake period of the rTWT SP, where the frame is transmitted during a first Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) that overlaps with the wake period, and transmit low latency traffic on the first link during the wake period, where the first TXOP that overlaps with the wake period is at least one of ended and continued.

A node of a wireless communication network receives first data indicating a desired quality of experience level for user data traffic of a user of the wireless communication network. Based on a control policy and the desired quality of experience level, the node determines a rule for controlling the user data traffic. Further, the node obtains second data indicating an estimated quality of experience level for the user data traffic subject to control according to the rule. Based on the first data and the second data, the node adapts the control policy, e.g., using a reinforcement learning, RL, mechanism.

In one embodiment, a device obtains information regarding temporary routing patches applied to a network. Each temporary routing patch implements a routing change in the network for a specified amount of time to avoid or mitigate against a service level agreement violation. The device evaluates, using the information regarding the temporary routing patches applied to the network, a plurality of replay scenarios for the network. The device determines, based on the plurality of replay scenarios, a long-term configuration change for the network. The device provides an indication of the long-term configuration change for display.

An enterprise network may receive a WiFi packet associated with a 5G service (or other type of service) at an access point (AP) in the enterprise network. The enterprise network determines whether the WiFi packet satisfies a first-packet policy associated with the 5G service, where the first-packet policy controls access to a tunnel for traversing the enterprise network to reach the 5G service. If the packet satisfies the policy, the enterprise network queries a map server to identify a location of a 5G border in the enterprise network that is connected to the 5G service. The enterprise network can transmit the WiFi packet on the tunnel with priority to meet SLA using the location of the 5G border.

A method performed by a wireless device. The wireless device sends an indication to a network node including a value corresponding to a size of a buffer of detected or expected to be had during inactive state at a time of one or more transmissions. The sending is performed with the proviso that the size of the buffer is smaller than a threshold. The wireless device receives a grant from the network node based on the indication, and then sends data to the network node during inactive state, according to the grant received. The sending of the data is performed with the proviso that the size of the buffer is smaller than the threshold. The sending of the indication is performed prior to the sending of one or more data packets comprising at least a part of the first data.
