Abstract: A system using the Ethernet OAM functionality for finding the smallest of hop-specific data transfer speeds related to a data transfer path from a first network element (101) to a second network element (102) is presented. The first network element is configured to transmit, to the second network element, first data including an Ethernet OAM message. Each intermediate network element (104, 105) located on the data transfer path is configured to update the first data to indicate so far smallest of the hop-specific data transfer speeds when the first data passes through the intermediate network elements. After receiving the first data, the second network element transmits, to the first network element, second data indicating the smallest of the hop-specific data transfer speeds. Thus, the first network element can be made aware of capacity changes taking place on the data transfer path.

Abstract: A method of uplink shaping and scheduling request (SR) prohibition in RRC Connected Mode is proposed. A UE applies DRX operation in a wireless network, the UE is in RRC Connection mode. The UE processes a data packet to be sent to the network. The data packet is associated with a traffic type. If the data packet belongs to a normal traffic type, then the UE transmits a scheduling request (SR) to the network. If the data packet belongs to a background traffic type, then the UE buffers the data packet and is prohibited from sending the SR to the network until a triggering condition is satisfied. By reducing the activity of uplink transmission, UE power consumption is improved and signaling overhead is reduced.

Abstract: A method of uplink shaping and extending UE in RRC Idle Mode is proposed. The UE processes a data packet to be sent to the network. The data packet is associated with a traffic type. If the data packet belongs to a normal traffic type, then the UE enters RRC Connected mode and thereby transmitting the data packet to the network. If the data packet belongs to a background traffic type, then the UE buffers the data packet and the UE is prohibited from entering RRC Connected mode until a triggering condition is satisfied for uplink transmission. The proposed mechanism achieves power saving by reducing the activity of uplink transmission. In addition, the proposed mechanism also reduces signaling overhead to enhance network efficiency.
