  • Publication number: 20230188444
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, apparatus, and computer programs for configuring packet loss rate (PLR) thresholds for UEs in a wireless communications network. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, by a UE connected to a wireless communications network, a packet loss rate (PLR) threshold configuration message from a node in the wireless communications network; determining, by the UE and based on the PLR threshold configuration message, a new PLR threshold configuration; and in response to determining the new PLR threshold configuration, selectively adjusting one or more configuration settings associated with a connection to the wireless communications network based on the new PLR threshold configuration.

  • Publication number: 20220046478
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for negotiating Radio Access Network (RAN)-level capabilities toward improving end-to-end quality of Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) communication sessions, such as Voice over Long-Term Evolution (VoLTE) calls. Disclosed embodiments include Session Description Protocol-based mechanisms to signal the RAN-level capabilities. The RAN-level capabilities may include, for example, delay budget information signaling, Transmission Time Interval bundling, RAN frame aggregation, RAN-assisted codec adaptation or access network bitrate recommendation, and/or other like capabilities. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

  • Patent number: 11197345
    Abstract: Apparatuses of user equipment (UEs) for end-to-end coordination of voice over cellular data network communications. An apparatus of a UE includes one or more data storage devices and one or more processors. The one or more data storage devices are configured to store delay budget information pertaining to end-to-end delivery of a real-time transport protocol (RTP) stream sent from a remote UE to the UE. The one or more processors are configured to generate an application layer message including the delay budget information, the application layer message to be transmitted to the remote UE to enable the remote UE to request, from a cellular base station servicing the remote UE, additional air interface delay based on the delay budget information.
