This disclosure relates to the 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate after the 4th generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The method for operating the core network in a wireless communication system according to this disclosure comprises the processes of determining the content to store in the terminal based on the location information of the terminal, transmitting the content transmission command to the base station so as to transmit the content to the terminal in response to the determination, checking whether the terminal has entered the overload cell, and forming a D2D communication link between the terminal and another adjacent terminal when it is identified that the terminal has entered the overload cell.

A method for delivering quality of service to a moving user equipment in a computer network, the method including: identifying a moving user equipment on the computer network; predicting a path of travel for the user equipment; determining a load of a cell in the path of travel; determining a traffic action response based on the load of the cell; and providing the traffic action. A system for delivering quality of service to a moving user equipment in a computer network, the system including: a location module configured to identify a moving user equipment on the computer network; an analysis module configured to predict a path of travel for the user equipment; a load module configured to determine a load of a cell in the path of travel; and a traffic action module configured to determine a traffic action response based on the load of the cell and provide for the traffic action.

A wireless communication network serves User Equipment (UEs) over a wireless network slice. A core user-plane in the slice exchanges user data with the UEs over a Radio Access Network (RAN). The core control-plane determines when the slice has a concentration of UEs that exceeds a threshold in a geographic area. When the slice has the UE concentration that exceeds the threshold in the geographic area, the core control-plane signals an edge user-plane to serve the UEs that use the wireless network slice in the geographic area. The edge user-plane exchanges additional user data over the RAN with the UEs that use the wireless network slice in the geographic area. The core control-plane may determine when the concentration of UEs moves toward another geographic area and proactively launch another edge user-plane to serve the UEs that will soon need the slice in the other geographic area.

A managed Wi-Fi service network device can receive, from a cellular network device, an allowable throughput rate at which a user equipment is authorized to communicate via a managed Wi-Fi service network. Based on the allowable throughput rate, the managed Wi-Fi service network device can monitor a communication rate of the user equipment via the managed Wi-Fi service network. In response to the user equipment communicating via the managed Wi-Fi service network at a rate that exceeds the allowable throughput rate, the managed Wi-Fi service network device can facilitate reducing the communication rate of the user equipment. Also, a user equipment can receive from a cellular network device an allowable throughput rate at which the user equipment is authorized to communicate via the managed Wi-Fi service network. The UE can communicate via the managed Wi-Fi service network at a communication rate that does not exceed the allowable throughput rate.

Various embodiments include methods for preloading data onto a wireless device based on predicted network status coverage and predicted user data access behaviors. In an aspect, a server may receive trip information a wireless device, receive network coverage map information representing a different network coverage areas, predict a travel time for the wireless device to reach the network coverage area with reduced signal quality, predict a travel duration of the wireless device within that network coverage area, and transmit a notification to the wireless device to enable preloading appropriate data before entering the network coverage area. Further aspects include wireless devices configure to communicate with the server and preloading appropriate data before entering the network coverage area

The present disclosure relates to a load balancing for a control in a wireless communication system. According to a various embodiments of the present disclosure, a method for operating a base station in a wireless communication system comprises determining a mobility of a terminal, and responsive to the mobility exceeding a threshold, transmitting, to the terminal, a message for requesting the terminal to process a control plane of the terminal with at least one other base station.
