Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for dynamically changing a channel state information (CSI) reporting protocol by adjusting CSI reporting frequency for a wireless device communicating with an access node within a wireless network. The methods and systems identify undesirable signal performance parameters at a particular wireless device and adjust the CSI reporting frequency when the undesirable signal performance parameters meet a predetermined threshold.

In response, a notification is provided by the transmission network to the second SIF that the second action is to be performed. In response to receiving the notification by the second SIF, the second action is performed by the second SIF.

QoS processing may be applied to a subset of packets of a flow or connection, referred to herein as “lazy” processing or lazy byte batching. Packets that bypass QoS processing may be immediately forwarded with the same QoS settings as packets of the flow for which QoS processing is applied, resulting in tremendous overhead savings with only minimal decline in accuracy.
