  • TRAFFIC FLOW MANAGEMENT IN A CELLULAR NETWORK
    Publication number: 20220191729
    Abstract: There is provided a method of managing traffic flows in a cellular network by a traffic flow management node. For each tile of a plurality of tiles of the cellular network, a traffic flow in the tile is measured (200) based on a location and corresponding velocity of at least one user equipment in the cellular network from information provided by the at least one user equipment, subsequent traffic flow in the tile is estimated (202) based on a comparison of the measured traffic flow in the tile to one or more previously measured traffic flows in the tile and an indication of the estimated subsequent traffic flow in the tile is transmitted (204) to a resource management node enabling management of resources related to the traffic flows in at least one tile of the cellular network by said resource management node.

  • Methods and Apparatus for Scheduling Resources in Radio Access Networks
    Publication number: 20220061063
    Abstract: The disclosure provides various methods for time-aware scheduling of time-sensitive network (TSN) streams in 5G networks. One method, performed in a core network associated with a radio access network (RAN), is for scheduling resources in the RAN according to a transmission schedule associated with an external network. The method comprises receiving (1210), from the external network, a transmission schedule associated with a time-sensitive data stream and sending (1220), to the RAN, a request to allocate radio resources for communication of the data stream between the RAN and a user equipment (UE). The request further comprises information related to the transmission schedule. The method also comprises receiving (1230), from the RAN, a response indicating whether radio resources can be allocated to meet the transmission schedule associated with the data stream.

  • Transport of Data Flows Over Cellular Networks
    Publication number: 20210321292
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide methods, apparatus and machine-readable media relating to transport of data flows over cellular network. One method in a core network node comprises: obtaining configuration information for a data stream in an external data network, the configuration information indicating respective values for one or more fields within a header of data packets associated with the data stream which are to remain static; initiating transmission of the configuration information to a wireless device which is to receive the data stream; receiving a data packet associated with the data stream from the external data network; removing the one or more fields from the data packet to generate a compressed data packet; and initiating transmission of the compressed data packet to the wireless device.

  • Industrial Automation with 5G and Beyond
    Publication number: 20200259896
    Abstract: Techniques for enhancing performance in Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT) scenarios, including techniques for time-sensitive networking (TSN) and 5G wireless network integration. An example method, performed by a wireless device, comprises receiving system information (SI) from a radio base station (RBS) of a radio access network (RAN), the SI being indicative of support for TSN through the RBS, and establishing at least one TSN stream with an external data network, through the RBS. The example method further includes receiving a first timing signal from the wireless communications network, via the RBS, receiving a second timing signal from the external TSN data network to which the wireless device is connected, comparing the first timing signal to the second timing signal to determine an offset, and transmitting the offset to the wireless communications network.
