A method, implemented in a cloud-based system, includes, responsive to a client device having a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card therein connecting to a mobile network from a mobile network operator, receiving authentication of the client device based on the SIM card; receiving forwarded traffic from the client device; and processing the forwarded traffic according to policy, wherein the policy is determined based on one of a user of the client device and a type of the client device, each being determined based on the SIM card.

Described embodiments provide systems and methods for adjusting a radio usage of a wireless link according to a time-averaged specific absorption rate (SAR). A first device configured to concurrently maintain a first wireless link with a second device and a second wireless link with an access point of a network may determine a proposed radio usage of the first wireless link and the second wireless link. The first device may determine a state of the first device according to the proposed radio usage and sensor information from at least one sensor of the first device. The first device may determine a time-averaged SAR of a user due to the first device, according to a defined time window and the determined state of the first device, to adjust the proposed radio usage of the first wireless link and the second wireless link to satisfy a threshold level of the time-averaged SAR.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first base station (BS) may receive, from a user equipment (UE), an overheating assistance information communication that indicates a maximum quantity of component carriers, combined between the first BS and a second BS, for the UE. The first BS may transmit, to the second BS, a request to reduce a quantity of component carriers of the second BS configured for the UE such that a total quantity of component carriers, between the first BS and the second BS, configured for the UE satisfies the maximum quantity of component carriers. Numerous other aspects are provided.

A base station determines, based on transmission quality information of a fronthaul and channel quality information of a terminal, a resource and a transmission scheme of the fronthaul assigned to the terminal, and controls, based on determined information, the transmission scheme of a signal to be transmitted to the fronthaul using the determined resource.

Provided is a wireless communication terminal that communicates wirelessly. The wireless communication terminal includes a transceiver and a processor for processing a radio signal received through the transceiver or a radio signal to be transmitted through the transceiver. The processor accesses a channel according to according to a priority of data to be transmitted to the base communication terminal by the wireless communication terminal.

Examples include a method to determine a Quality of Service, QoS, parameter, comprising receiving, at a base station, and from a transmitting entity, a QoS parameter request for a session, whereby the request comprises a descriptor for the session and an indication that the session is a probing session. The method further comprises determining, at the base station, the QoS parameter related to the probing session; and transmitting, by the base station, the determined QoS parameter to a receiving entity.

A mobile communication device for receiving an ad hoc temporary upgrade in quality of service (QoS). The mobile communication device comprises a processor, at least one cellular radio transceiver, a non-transitory memory, and an ad hoc service upgrade application. When executed by the processor, the application monitors wireless cellular communication on a network via the at least one cellular radio transceiver, detects a significant delay in the communication, generates a prompt on a GUI, the prompt comprising a plurality of options for an ad hoc temporary upgraded QoS, where each option is associated with a time period. The application further, based on a user input, requests a preferred roaming list (PRL) associated with the temporary upgraded QoS, receives the PRL, wherein the PRL is associated with providing the upgraded QoS on an allocated spectrum, activates the received PRL, and upon expiration of the time period, deactivates the received PRL.

Systems, devices, and techniques described herein relate to intelligently allocating network resources to Quality of Service (QoS)-sensitive data traffic. An example method includes identifying a request to deliver QoS-sensitive services to a User Equipment (UE) over at least one delivery network. The at least one delivery network may include at least one reserved resource and at least one pooled resource. The QoS-sensitive services are determined to be delivered over the at least one pooled resource. In addition, delivery of the QoS-sensitive services is caused over the at least one pooled resource.

There is provided a method for managing services in a network. The method is performed by a first node. The method is performed in response to receiving a service for a user equipment (UE) from at least one second node that is incapable of handling network slices for providing the service. The method comprises assigning (100) the service to one of a plurality of network slices in the network based on a quality of service (QoS) indicator assigned to the service.

A boost is provided in an overloaded system by distinguishing nodes with a “bad” traffic history from nodes with a “good” traffic history. In so doing, a core network node is able to apply additional resources to the node(s) having a “good” history in the form of a boost factor. Based on a system capacity and a working point, e.g., a critical number of active nodes with a “bad” traffic history, the core network node may determine a throughput history limit belonging to the “bad” traffic history. Responsive to expected requirements for a newly active node (i.e., a node having a “good” traffic history), the core network node determines a boost factor for the newly active node, applies the boost factor to the average resources allocated to the nodes with the “bad” traffic history to determine boosted resources, and allocates the boosted resources to the newly active node.
