Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment (UE) device to adaptively enhance the quality of service (QoS) configuration of a bearer of communications conducted over a cellular network between a UE application and a server.

If conditions are satisfied, the base station reconfigures the UE with a second RLM configuration and a second CE configuration having a second CE level lower than the first CE level.
