Among other things, this document describes systems, devices, and methods for wireless content delivery to vehicles and in particular to vehicles in cellular radio environments. The teachings hereof can be used to deliver a vehicle manufacturer's head unit updates, firmware, configurations, and other data to a vehicle. In embodiments, downloads are managed at the control plane and/or data plane. Download management can include mitigating either current or anticipated wireless congestion at cell towers, enforcing campaign priority for firmware updates, accommodating occupant-originated data flows to and from the vehicle, and/or accounting for contractual data arrangements between vehicles makers and cellular providers, among other things.

The disclosed techniques enable communication nodes to perform rate adjustments. As an example, a communication node may receive a control information from a network node. Based on the received control information, the control node may determine that the network node supports codec adaptation or that the communication node is allowed to enable the codec adaptation.

In one embodiment, a computing system receives a request for a quality of experience report associated with a plurality of geographic areas connected by a communication network. The system accesses a plurality of quality of experience metrics from the plurality of geographic areas. The system identifies one or more of the plurality of geographic areas that have low quality of experiences based on their respective quality of experience metrics and a set of criteria which includes one or more thresholds corresponding to the quality of experience metrics. The system determines for each identified geographic area, a severity of the low quality of experiences. The severity is based on a connection demand metric associated with each geographic area. The system sends instructions for presenting the quality of experience report which indicates the severity of the low quality of experiences for each identified geographic area.

This application provides a multi-hop data transmission method and apparatus, where the method includes: A primary base station obtains route configuration information, where the route configuration information indicates a first data transmission path between a terminal device and a serving gateway, the first data transmission path includes at least two route base stations, and the at least two route base stations include a secondary base station for the terminal device; and the primary base station sends the route configuration information to the at least two route base stations.

In one illustrative example, network fabric policy data associated with an application, subscriber, and/or device may be received. Mobile network policy data that corresponds to the received network fabric policy data may be selected, based on stored policy mappings between a set of network fabric policy profiles of a fabric network and a set of mobile network policy profiles of a mobile network. A bearer or Quality of Service (QoS) flow of the mobile network may be established in satisfaction of the selected mobile network policy data. In addition, a packet filter of a traffic flow template (TFT) or a packet detection rule (PDR) may be generated and applied in order to direct IP traffic flows associated with the application to the established bearer or QoS flow for communication in the mobile network.

Unlike smart devices, Internet of things (IoTs), such as meter readers, generate very low revenue per user. Traditional tunnel/bearer based connection-oriented architectures do not scale economically for billions of IoT devices due to the amount of signaling overhead associated with GTP tunnel setup/tear down and the states related to GTP tunnels maintained at various parts of the mobile network. However, the mobility network can efficiently support massive stationary and/or mobile IoTs by reducing the amount of signaling overhead, the state of the IoTs kept in network, and simplifying the data plane when possible.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a mode for mapping multicast broadcast quality of service (MB-QoS) flows to logical channel identifiers and group radio network temporary identifiers (G-RNTIs); identify an MB-QoS flow from a medium access control (MAC) transport block (TB) based at least in part on the indicated mode; and decode data included in the MB-QoS flow. Numerous other aspects are provided.
