Abstract: The disclosure relates to a mobile device configured to receive from a network a notification of a predicted change of a Quality-of-Service, QoS related to a local end-to-end data communication path; and configured to provide a report to the network, the report comprising at least one of the following information: location information, application layer information, mobile device status information, experienced QoS at mobile device side, radio channel conditions. The disclosure further relates to a network device configured to transceive communication data via a communication path, in particular a local end-to-end data communication path between a mobile device and another mobile device, based on a Quality-of-Service, QoS, requirement for the communication path; and configured to notify the mobile device about a predicted change of the QoS related to the communication path.

Abstract: A configuration module allows for the establishment of a local end-to-end (E2E) path connecting at least one source node and at least one target node via at least one radio access network (RAN) node. The configuration module is configured to select data radio bearers (DRBs) per quality of service (QoS) flow based on inter-node information from the at least one source node, the at least one target node, the at least one RAN node and all other nodes involved in establishing the local E2E path, and is also configured to initiate, after selecting the DRBs per QoS flow, a radio resource communication connection configuration using an identification of the local E2E path to be established. Thereby, a localized traffic between the at least one source node and the at least one target node can be exchanged with QoS guarantees.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a base station, BS, for enabling radio bearers' establishment and radio path formation to support end-to-end transmission of localized data among a group of communication devices, in particular machine-type communication, MTC, devices, the BS comprising: a radio controller configured: to receive a session request message from a communication device of the group of communication devices, wherein the session request message comprises information about a specific service; to establish a plurality of radio bearers among the group of communication devices and to form a plurality of radio paths over the plurality of radio bearers according to the information about the specific service to support end-to-end transmission of localized data between the communication devices of the group of communication devices.
