By determining the logic channel or logic channel group satisfying the BSR triggering criterion and, when the determined logic channel or logic channel group corresponds to the DRB mapped by the SDAP entity, and reporting to the base station the BSR comprising the buffer of the SDAP entity mapped to the determined logic channel or logic channel group, the problem with reporting the buffer state of the logic channel or logic channel group when a new protocol layer is introduced can be solved. | 2021-04-15 |
20210112443 | METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR RULES-BASED OVERLOAD CONTROL FOR 5G SERVICING - A method for rules-based overload control for 5G services includes configuring, at an intermediate or a producer network function (NF), overload message handing rules, wherein at least some of the rules include destination network name (DNN), network subscription, network location, or a network slice identifying parameter or any parameter/attribute defined by 3GPP/vendor as rule selection criteria. The method includes a guaranteed processing bandwidth of the intermediate or producer NF with at least some of the overload message handling rules, receiving a first message at the intermediate or producer NF, determining that an overload condition exists, identifying that the first message includes parameters that match the rule selection criteria for one of the overload message handling rules, determining, that a portion of the guaranteed processing bandwidth of the intermediate or producer NF for the matching overload message handling rule is available to process the first message, processing the first message, and updating a message count for the overload message handling rule. | 2021-04-15 |
20210112444 | Congestion and Overload Reduction - A gateway server situated between a radio access network and a core network is disclosed that includes a radio access network packet interface, a load management module for monitoring load of a management server in the core network coupled to the radio access network packet interface, a packet forwarding module for forwarding requests to the management server coupled to the load management module, and a local packet core module coupled to the load management module and the packet forwarding module, the local packet core module being configured to respond to a mobile device, when an overload is detected at the management server, with a management server message requesting that the mobile device try again at a later time. | 2021-04-15 |
