Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication and to techniques and apparatus for quality of experience (QoE) reporting handling for inactive states. [Background technology]

[0002] Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various telecommunication services such as telephony, video, data, messaging, and broadcasting. Typical wireless communication systems may employ multiple access technologies capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., bandwidth, transmit power, etc.). Examples of such multiple access technologies include code division multiple access (CDMA) systems, time division multiple access (TDMA) systems, frequency division multiple access (FDMA) systems, orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) systems, single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) systems, time division synchronous code division multiple access (TD-SCDMA) systems, and Long Term Evolution (LTE). LTE / LTE-Advanced is a set of extensions to the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) mobile standard promulgated by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).

[0003] A wireless network may include several base stations (BSs) that can support communication for several user equipments (UEs). The UEs may communicate with the BSs via a downlink and an uplink. The downlink (or forward link) refers to the communication link from the BS to the UE, and the uplink (or reverse link) refers to the communication link from the UE to the BS. As described in more detail herein, a BS may be referred to as a Node B, a gNB, an access point (AP), a radio head, a transmit receive point (TRP), a new radio (NR) BS, a 5G Node B, etc.

[0004]

[0004] The above multiple access technologies have been adopted in various telecommunications standards to provide common protocols that enable different user equipment to communicate on a city, national, regional, or even global scale. NR, sometimes referred to as 5G, is a set of extensions to the LTE mobile standard promulgated by 3GPP. NR is designed to improve spectral efficiency, lower costs, improve service, utilize new spectrum, and better support mobile broadband Internet access by using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with cyclic prefix (CP-OFDM) on the downlink (DL) and CP-OFDM and / or SC-FDM (e.g., discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-s-OFDM)) on the uplink (UL), better integrating with other open standards, as well as supporting beamforming, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology, and carrier aggregation. As demand for mobile broadband access continues to grow, further developments in LTE, NR, and other radio access technologies remain useful. Summary of the Invention

[0026]

[0032] Various aspects of the present disclosure are described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present disclosure may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to any specific structure or function presented throughout this disclosure. Rather, these aspects are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art. Based on the teachings herein, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the scope of the present disclosure covers any aspect of the present disclosure disclosed herein, whether implemented independently of or in combination with other aspects of the present disclosure. For example, an apparatus may be implemented or a method may be practiced using any number of the aspects described herein. Furthermore, the scope of the present disclosure is intended to cover such apparatuses or methods practiced using other structure, functions, or structure and functions in addition to or other than the various aspects of the present disclosure described herein. It should be understood that any aspect of the disclosure disclosed herein may be embodied by one or more elements of a claim.

[0027]

[0033] Several aspects of telecommunications systems are presented next with reference to various apparatus and techniques. These apparatus and techniques are described in the detailed description that follows and illustrated in the accompanying drawings by various blocks, modules, components, circuits, steps, processes, algorithms, etc. (collectively referred to as "elements"). These elements may be implemented using hardware, software, or a combination thereof. Whether such elements are implemented as hardware or software depends on the particular application and design constraints imposed on the overall system.

[0028]

[0034] It should be noted that although aspects may be described herein using terminology commonly associated with 5G or New Radio (NR) radio access technology (RAT), aspects of the present disclosure may apply to other RATs, such as 3G RAT, 4G RAT, and / or RATs subsequent to 5G (e.g., 6G).

[0029]

[0035] FIG. 1 illustrates an example of a wireless network 100 according to the present disclosure. The wireless network 100 may be or include elements of a 5G (NR) network and / or an LTE network, among other examples. The wireless network 100 may include several base stations 110 (shown as BS 110a, BS 110b, BS 110c, and BS 110d) and other network entities. A base station (BS) is an entity that communicates with user equipment (UE) and may also be referred to as an NR BS, Node B, gNB, 5G Node B (NB), access point, transmit / receive point (TRP), etc. Each BS may provide communication coverage for a particular geographic area. In 3GPP, the term “cell” can refer to the coverage area of ​​a BS and / or a BS subsystem serving this coverage area, depending on the context in which the term is used.

[0030]

[0036] A BS may provide communication coverage for a macro cell, a pico cell, a femto cell, and / or another type of cell. A macro cell may cover a relatively large geographic area (e.g., a few kilometers in radius) and may allow unrestricted access by UEs with service subscriptions. A pico cell may cover a relatively small geographic area and may allow unrestricted access by UEs with service subscriptions. A femto cell may cover a relatively small geographic area (e.g., a home) and may allow restricted access by UEs that have an association with the femto cell (e.g., UEs in a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG)). A BS for a macro cell may be referred to as a macro BS. A BS for a pico cell may be referred to as a pico BS. A BS for a femto cell may be referred to as a femto BS or a home BS. In the example shown in FIG. 1, BS 110a may be a macro BS for macro cell 102a, BS 110b may be a pico BS for pico cell 102b, and BS 110c may be a femto BS for femto cell 102c. A BS may support one or more (e.g., three) cells. The terms “eNB,” “base station,” “NR BS,” “gNB,” “TRP,” “AP,” “Node B,” “5G NB,” and “cell” may be used interchangeably herein.

[0031]

[0037] In some aspects, the cells may not necessarily be fixed, and the geographic area of ​​the cells may move according to the location of the mobile BS. In some aspects, the BSs may be interconnected to each other and / or to one or more other BSs or network nodes (not shown) in wireless network 100 through various types of backhaul interfaces, such as direct physical connections or virtual networks, using any suitable transport network.

[0032]

[0038] Wireless network 100 may also include relay stations. A relay station is an entity that can receive a data transmission from an upstream station (e.g., a BS or UE) and send the data transmission to a downstream station (e.g., a UE or BS). A relay station may also be a UE that can relay transmissions for other UEs. In the example shown in FIG. 1, relay BS 110d may communicate with BS 110a and UE 120d to enable communication between macro BS 110a and UE 120d. A relay BS may also be referred to as a relay station, relay base station, relay, etc.

[0033]

[0039] Wireless network 100 may be a heterogeneous network including different types of BSs, such as macro BSs, pico BSs, femto BSs, relay BSs, etc. These different types of BSs may have different transmit power levels, different coverage areas, and different impacts on interference in wireless network 100. For example, a macro BS may have a high transmit power level (e.g., 5-40 watts), while pico BSs, femto BSs, and relay BSs may have lower transmit power levels (e.g., 0.1-2 watts).

[0034]

[0040] A network controller 130 may couple to a set of BSs and provide coordination and control for these BSs. The network controller 130 may communicate with the BSs via a backhaul. The BSs may also communicate with each other directly or indirectly, for example, via wireless or wireline backhaul.

[0035]

[0041] The UEs 120 (e.g., 120a, 120b, 120c) may be dispersed throughout the wireless network 100, and each UE may be fixed or mobile. A UE may also be referred to as an access terminal, terminal, mobile station, subscriber unit, station, etc. A UE may be a cellular phone (e.g., a smartphone), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a wireless modem, a wireless communication device, a handheld device, a laptop computer, a cordless phone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a tablet, a camera, a gaming device, a netbook, a smartbook, an ultrabook, a medical device or equipment, a biometric sensor / device, a wearable device (smart watch, smart clothing, smart glasses, smart wristband, smart jewelry (e.g., smart ring, smart bracelet)), an entertainment device (e.g., a music or video device, or satellite radio), a vehicle component or sensor, a smart meter / sensor, industrial manufacturing equipment, a global positioning system device, or any other suitable device configured to communicate over a wireless or wired medium.

[0036]

[0042] Some UEs may be considered machine type communication (MTC) UEs or evolved or enhanced machine type communication (eMTC) UEs. MTC UEs and eMTC UEs include, for example, a robot, a drone, a remote device, a sensor, a meter, a monitor, and / or a location tag that may communicate with a base station, another device (e.g., a remote device), or some other entity. A wireless node may provide, for example, connectivity for or to a network (e.g., a wide area network such as the Internet or a cellular network) via a wired or wireless communication link. Some UEs may be considered Internet of Things (IoT) devices and / or implemented as NB-IoT (narrowband Internet of Things) devices. Some UEs may be considered customer premises equipment (CPE). The UE 120 may be included in a housing that stores components of the UE 120, such as a processor component and / or a memory component. In some aspects, the processor component and the memory component may be coupled together. For example, a processor component (e.g., one or more processors) and a memory component (e.g., memory) may be operatively coupled, communicatively coupled, electronically coupled, and / or electrically coupled.

[0037]

[0043] Generally, any number of wireless networks may be deployed in a given geographic area. Each wireless network may support a particular RAT and may operate on one or more frequencies. A RAT may also be referred to as a radio technology, air interface, etc. A frequency may also be referred to as a carrier, frequency channel, etc. Each frequency may support a single RAT in a given geographic area to avoid interference between wireless networks of different RATs. In some cases, NR or 5G RAT networks may be deployed.

[0038]

[0044] In some aspects, two or more UEs 120 (e.g., shown as UE 120a and UE 120e) may communicate directly (e.g., without using a base station 110 as an intermediary for communicating with each other) using one or more sidelink channels. For example, the UEs 120 may communicate using peer-to-peer (P2P) communication, device-to-device (D2D) communication, a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) protocol (which may include, e.g., a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) protocol or a vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) protocol), and / or a mesh network. In this case, the UEs 120 may perform scheduling operations, resource selection operations, and / or other operations described elsewhere herein as being performed by the base station 110.

[0039]

[0045] The devices of wireless network 100 may communicate using an electromagnetic spectrum, which may be subdivided into various classes, bands, channels, etc. based on frequency or wavelength. For example, the devices of wireless network 100 may communicate using an operating band having a first frequency range (FR1), which may range from 410 MHz to 7.125 GHz, and / or may communicate using an operating band having a second frequency range (FR2), which may range from 24.25 GHz to 52.6 GHz. Frequencies between FR1 and FR2 are sometimes referred to as mid-band frequencies. Although a portion of FR1 is greater than 6 GHz, FR1 is often referred to as the “sub-6 GHz” band. Similarly, FR2 is often referred to as “millimeter wave” even though it is different from the extremely high frequency (EHF) band (30 GHz to 300 GHz), which is identified as the “millimeter wave” band by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). Thus, unless otherwise specified, it should be understood that terms such as "sub-6 GHz," as used herein, may broadly refer to frequencies below 6 GHz, frequencies within FR1, and / or mid-band frequencies (e.g., greater than 7.125 GHz). Similarly, unless otherwise specified, it should be understood that terms such as "millimeter wave," as used herein, may broadly refer to frequencies within the EHF band, frequencies within FR2, and / or mid-band frequencies (e.g., less than 24.25 GHz). The frequencies included within FR1 and FR2 may be modified, and it is contemplated that the techniques described herein are applicable to those modified frequency ranges.

[0040]

[0046] In some aspects, UE 120 may include a communications manager 140. As described in further detail herein, communications manager 140 may receive one or more quality of experience (QoE) configurations from the first base station prior to entering the inactive state and / or may perform at least one action of the one or more QoE configurations based at least in part on transitioning from the inactive state to a connected state with the second base station. Additionally or alternatively, communications manager 140 may perform one or more other actions described herein.

[0041]

[0047] In some aspects, base station 110 may include communications manager 150. As described in more detail elsewhere herein, communications manager 150 may receive a UE context for a UE from another base station that supports one or more QoE configurations for the UE and / or may send a message to the UE to resume the UE's connection with the base station based at least in part on the UE transitioning from an inactive state to a connected state with the base station. Additionally or alternatively, as described in more detail elsewhere herein, communications manager 150 may receive a request for a UE context from another base station, the UE context including a QoE context for the UE, and / or send a released UE context including or having a QoE context, or a portion of a QoE context, to another base station. Additionally or alternatively, as described in more detail elsewhere herein, communications manager 150 may send a request for a UE context to another base station, the UE context including a QoE context for the UE, and / or receive a released UE context including or having a QoE context, or a portion of a QoE context, from another base station. Additionally or alternatively, communications manager 150 may perform one or more other operations described herein.

[0042]

[0048] As noted above, Figure 1 is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from those described with respect to Figure 1.

[0043]

[0049] 2 is a diagram illustrating an example base station 110 200 communicating with a UE 120 in a wireless network 100 in accordance with the present disclosure. The base station 110 may be equipped with T antennas 234a through 234t, and the UE 120 may be equipped with R antennas 252a through 252r, where in general T≧1 and R≧1.

[0044]

[0050] At base station 110, transmit processor 220 may receive data from data source 212 for one or more UEs, select one or more modulation and coding schemes (MCSs) for each UE based at least in part on a channel quality indicator (CQI) received from the UE, process (e.g., encode and modulate) the data for each UE based at least in part on the selected MCS(es) for that UE, and provide data symbols for all UEs. Transmit processor 220 may also process system information (e.g., for semi-static resource partitioning information (SRPI)) and control information (e.g., CQI requests, grants, and / or upper layer signaling) and provide overhead symbols and control symbols. Transmit processor 220 may also generate reference symbols for reference signals (e.g., cell-specific reference signals (CRS) or demodulation reference signals (DMRS)) and synchronization signals (e.g., primary synchronization signals (PSS) or secondary synchronization signals (SSS)). The transmit (TX) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) processor 230 may perform spatial processing (e.g., precoding) on ​​the data symbols, control symbols, overhead symbols, and / or reference symbols, if applicable, and may provide T output symbol streams to T modulators (MODs) 232a through 232t. Each modulator 232 may process a respective output symbol stream (e.g., for OFDM) to obtain an output sample stream. Each modulator 232 may further process (e.g., convert to analog, amplify, filter, and upconvert) the output sample stream to obtain a downlink signal. The T downlink signals from modulators 232a through 232t may be transmitted via T antennas 234a through 234t, respectively.

[0045]

[0051] At UE 120, antennas 252a through 252r may receive downlink signals from base station 110 and / or another base station and may provide received signals to demodulators (DEMODs) 254a through 254r, respectively. Each demodulator 254 may condition (e.g., filter, amplify, downconvert, and digitize) the received signal to obtain input samples. Each demodulator 254 may further process the input samples (e.g., for OFDM) to obtain received symbols. A MIMO detector 256 may obtain received symbols from all R demodulators 254a through 254r, perform MIMO detection on the received symbols if applicable, and provide detected symbols. A receive processor 258 may process (e.g., demodulate and decode) the detected symbols and provide decoded data for UE 120 to a data sink 260 and may provide decoded control and system information to a controller / processor 280. The term “controller / processor” may refer to one or more controllers, one or more processors, or a combination thereof. The channel processor may determine a reference signal received power (RSRP) parameter, a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) parameter, a reference signal received quality (RSRQ) parameter, and / or a channel quality indicator (CQI) parameter, among other examples. In some aspects, one or more components of the UE 120 may be included in the housing 284.

[0046]

[0052] The network controller 130 may include a communication unit 294, a controller / processor 290, and a memory 292. The network controller 130 may include, for example, one or more devices in a core network. The network controller 130 may communicate with the base station 110 via the communication unit 294.

[0047]

[0053] Antennas (e.g., antennas 234a-234t and / or antennas 252a-252r) may include or be contained within one or more antenna panels, antenna groups, sets of antenna elements, and / or antenna arrays, among other examples. An antenna panel, antenna group, set of antenna elements, and / or antenna array may include one or more antenna elements. An antenna panel, antenna group, set of antenna elements, and / or antenna array may include a set of coplanar antenna elements and / or a set of non-coplanar antenna elements. An antenna panel, antenna group, set of antenna elements, and / or antenna array may include antenna elements within a single housing and / or antenna elements within multiple housings. An antenna panel, antenna group, set of antenna elements, and / or antenna array may include one or more antenna elements coupled to one or more transmitting and / or receiving components, such as one or more components of FIG. 2.

[0048]

[0054] On the uplink, at the UE 120, a transmit processor 264 may receive and process data from a data source 262 and control information from a controller / processor 280 (e.g., for reports including RSRP, RSSI, RSRQ, and / or CQI). The transmit processor 264 may also generate reference symbols for one or more reference signals. The symbols from the transmit processor 264 may be precoded by a TX MIMO processor 266, if applicable, further processed by modulators 254a-254r (e.g., for DFT-s-OFDM or CP-OFDM), and transmitted to the base station 110. In some aspects, the modulator and demodulator (e.g., MOD / DEMOD 254) of the UE 120 may be included within a modem of the UE 120. In some aspects, the UE 120 includes a transceiver. The transceiver may include any combination of antenna(s) 252, a modulator and / or demodulator 254, a MIMO detector 256, a receive processor 258, a transmit processor 264, and / or a TX MIMO processor 266. The transceiver may be used by a processor (e.g., a controller / processor 280) and a memory 282 to implement aspects of any of the methods described herein, for example, as described with reference to FIGS.

[0049]

[0055] At the base station 110, uplink signals from the UE 120 and other UEs may be received by the antenna 234, processed by a demodulator 232, detected by a MIMO detector 236, if applicable, and further processed by a receive processor 238 to obtain decoded data and control information sent by the UE 120. The receive processor 238 may provide the decoded data to a data sink 239 and the decoded control information to the controller / processor 240. The base station 110 may include a communication unit 244 and communicate with the network controller 130 via the communication unit 244. The base station 110 may include a scheduler 246 to schedule the UE 120 for downlink and / or uplink communication. In some aspects, the modulator and demodulator (e.g., MOD / DEMOD 232) of the base station 110 may be included within a modem of the base station 110. In some aspects, the base station 110 includes a transceiver. The transceiver may include any combination of antenna(s) 234, a modulator and / or demodulator 232, a MIMO detector 236, a receive processor 238, a transmit processor 220, and / or a TX MIMO processor 230. The transceiver may be used by a processor (e.g., a controller / processor 240) and a memory 242 to implement aspects of any of the methods described herein, for example, as described with reference to FIGS.

[0050]

[0056] The controller / processor 240 of the base station 110, the controller / processor 280 of the UE 120, and / or any other components of FIG. 2 may perform one or more techniques associated with inactive state QoE operation handling, as described in more detail elsewhere herein. For example, the controller / processor 240 of the base station 110, the controller / processor 280 of the UE 120, and / or any one or more other components of FIG. 2 may perform or direct the operation of, for example, process 600 of FIG. 6, process 700 of FIG. 7, process 800 of FIG. 8, process 900 of FIG. 9, and / or other processes described herein. The memories 242 and 282 may store data and program codes for the base station 110 and the UE 120, respectively. In some aspects, the memory 242 and / or the memory 282 may include a non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores one or more instructions (e.g., code and / or program code) for wireless communication. For example, the one or more instructions, when executed by one or more processors of the base station 110 and / or the UE 120 (e.g., directly or after being compiled, translated, and / or interpreted), may cause the one or more processors, the UE 120, and / or the base station 110 to perform or direct operations of, for example, process 600 of FIG. 6, process 700 of FIG. 7, process 800 of FIG. 8, process 900 of FIG. 9, and / or other processes described herein. In some aspects, executing the instructions may include running the instructions, translating the instructions, compiling the instructions, and / or interpreting the instructions, among other examples.

[0051]

[0057] In some aspects, the UE includes means for receiving one or more QoE configurations from the first base station prior to entering the inactive state and / or means for implementing at least one operation of the one or more QoE configurations based at least in part on transitioning from the inactive state to a connected state with the second base station. The means for the UE to perform the operations described herein may include, for example, one or more of communications manager 140, antenna 252, demodulator 254, MIMO detector 256, receive processor 258, transmit processor 264, TX MIMO processor 266, modulator 254, controller / processor 280, or memory 282.

[0052]

[0058] In some aspects, the base station includes means for receiving a UE context for the UE from another base station that supports one or more QoE configurations for the UE and / or means for sending a message to the UE to resume the UE's connection with the base station based at least in part on the UE transitioning from an inactive state to a connected state with the base station. In some aspects, the base station includes means for receiving a request for a UE context from another base station, the UE context including a QoE context for the UE and / or means for sending a UE context including or having a released QoE context, or a portion of a QoE context, to another base station. In some aspects, the base station includes means for sending a request for a UE context to another base station, the UE context including a QoE context for the UE and / or means for receiving a UE context including or having a released QoE context, or a portion of a QoE context, from another base station. The means for a base station to perform the operations described herein may include, for example, one or more of the communications manager 150, the transmit processor 220, the TX MIMO processor 230, the modulator 232, the antenna 234, the demodulator 232, the MIMO detector 236, the receive processor 238, the controller / processor 240, the memory 242, or the scheduler 246.

[0053]

[0059] 2 are shown as separate components, the functionality described above with respect to those blocks may be implemented in a single hardware, software, or combined component, or in various combinations of components. For example, functionality described with respect to transmit processor 264, receive processor 258, and / or TX MIMO processor 266 may be performed by or under the control of controller / processor 280.

[0054]

[0060] As noted above, Figure 2 is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from those described with respect to Figure 2.

[0055]

[0061] 3 illustrates an example wireless network 300 (e.g., wireless network 100) in which a UE 120 may support a communication mode. The UE 120 may be communicatively connected to one or more base stations 110 in the wireless network (e.g., simultaneously or sequentially, such as in a dual connectivity mode).

[0056]

[0062] 3, the UE 120 may support a connected communication mode (e.g., a radio resource control (RRC) connected mode 302), an idle communication mode (e.g., an RRC idle mode 304), an inactive communication mode (e.g., an RRC inactive mode 306), etc. The RRC inactive mode 306 may exist functionally between the RRC connected mode 302 and the RRC idle mode 304.

[0057]

[0063] The UE 120 may transition between different modes based at least in part on various commands and / or communications received from one or more base stations 110. For example, the UE 120 may transition from an RRC connected mode 302 or an RRC inactive mode 306 to an RRC idle mode 304 based at least in part on receiving an RRC release communication (e.g., an RRCRelease message). As another example, the UE 120 may transition from an RRC connected mode 302 to an RRC inactive mode 306 based at least in part on receiving an RRC release communication with a configuration suspension (e.g., an RRCRelease with suspendConfig message). As another example, the UE 120 may transition from an RRC idle mode 304 to an RRC connected mode 302 based at least in part on receiving an RRC connection setup communication (e.g., an RRCSetup message). As another example, the UE 120 may transition from an RRC inactive mode 306 to an RRC connected mode 302 based at least in part on receiving an RRC resumption communication (e.g., an RRCResume message).

[0058]

[0064] When transitioning to the RRC inactive mode 306, the UE 120 and / or the serving base station 110 may store the UE 120 context (e.g., Access Stratum (AS) context, higher layer configuration, etc.). This allows the UE 120, the base station 110, and / or the new base station 110 to apply the stored UE 120 context when the UE 120 transitions from the RRC inactive mode 306 to the RRC connected mode 302 to resume communication, reducing the latency of transitioning to the RRC connected mode 302 relative to transitioning from the RRC idle mode 304 to the RRC connected mode 302.

[0059]

[0065] As noted above, Figure 3 is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from those described with respect to Figure 3.

[0060]

[0066] FIG. 4 illustrates an example 400 of a QoE measurement configuration and QoE reporting according to the present disclosure. QoE may refer to a user's satisfaction with a service from the user's perspective. The example 400 may include communication between a QoE server 405, a base station 110, and a UE 120. The QoE server 405 may be associated with a network operator that uses the base station 110 (e.g., the QoE server 405 may be associated with an operations, administration, and maintenance (OAM) system, a control node, etc.). The QoE server 405 may perform operations related to QoE measurement, such as processing QoE information, analyzing the QoE information, determining key performance indicators (KPIs) based on the QoE information, etc. The UE 120 may be operating in an RRC connected (e.g., RRC_CONNECTED) state (e.g., in the connected mode described with respect to FIG. 3). Additionally, UE 120 may be configured with a signaling radio bearer (SRB) for QoE reporting (eg, SRB4) for base station 110.

[0061]

[0067] As indicated by reference numeral 410, the base station 110 may receive from the QoE server 405 information identifying a QoE configuration used by the base station 110 (e.g., for configuring the UE for QoE reporting). For example, the QoE server 405 may send an application layer QoE measurement configuration of the UE encapsulated in a transparent container to the base station 110. As indicated by reference numeral 420, the base station 110 may send, and the UE 120 may receive (e.g., at the access stratum layer of the UE), a QoE measurement configuration (e.g., a QoE measurement configuration based at least in part on the QoE configuration received by the base station 110). For example, the base station 110 may forward to the UE the application layer QoE measurement configuration received from the QoE server 405 (e.g., in a downlink RRC message). As an example, the base station 110 may send an RRC reconfiguration (e.g., RRCReconfiguration) message indicating the QoE measurement configuration in a measConfigAppLayer information element.

[0062]

[0068] The QoE measurement configuration may identify one or more QoE measurements (e.g., related to the quality of a streaming service used at the UE 120) to be collected by the UE 120. The QoE measurements may refer to measurements (e.g., related to bitrate, drop rate, connection failures, jitter, playtime, etc.) for use in determining QoE, QoE metrics, QoE KPIs, etc. The QoE measurement configuration may also identify one or more service types (e.g., Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (MTSI) multimedia telephony service, streaming service, and / or Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS), among other examples) for which the UE 120 performs QoE measurements.

[0063]

[0069] As indicated by reference numeral 430, the UE 120, via the access stratum layer, may provide a command to the application layer of the UE 120 to start QoE measurement. That is, the command may be a command to start QoE measurement collection (QMC). The command may be a mobile station modem (MSM) interface / attention (AT) command. As indicated by reference numeral 440, the UE 120, via the application layer, may provide QoE measurements to the access stratum layer. The QoE measurements may be per service type indicated by the QoE measurement configuration.

[0064]

[0070] As indicated by reference numeral 450, the UE 120 may transmit a QoE report (e.g., using an access stratum layer), and the base station 110 may receive the QoE report. For example, the UE may encapsulate application layer measurements from the UE's upper layers in a transparent container transmitted to the base station 110 (e.g., in an uplink RRC message). As an example, the UE 120 may transmit a measReportAppLayer message indicating the QoE report. The QoE report may be based at least in part on QoE measurements collected by the UE 120. For example, the QoE report may identify QoE measurements (e.g., per service type) collected by the UE 120. The UE 120 may transmit the QoE report via an SRB for QoE reporting (e.g., SRB4), which is a separate SRB (e.g., separate from the current NR SRB) for lower priority QoE reporting (e.g., relative to other SRB transmissions). In some examples, the base station 110 may send an indication (e.g., via RRC signaling) to the UE 120 to suspend or resume QoE reporting. As indicated by reference numeral 460, the base station 110 may send the QoE report, or information related to the QoE report, to the QoE server 405.

[0065]

[0071] As described herein, the UE context (e.g., UE AS context) of the UE 120 may be stored by the base station 110. The UE context may include the UE's QoE context (e.g., indicating the UE's QoE configuration, etc.). In some examples, after being configured for QoE measurement and reporting by the base station 110, the UE 120 may enter an inactive state (e.g., in an RRC inactive mode, described with reference to FIG. 3). However, when transitioning from the inactive state to a connected state, the UE 120 may resume a connection (e.g., an RRC connection) with a new base station 110 (or other RAN node) that does not support QoE operations or does not support the UE's 120's QoE configuration. In some cases, the UE 120 may resume a connection with a new base station 110 (or other RAN node) that supports the UE's 120's QoE operations and / or QoE configuration but is experiencing overload and may therefore need to reduce or terminate the UE's 120's QoE reporting.

[0066]

[0072] However, when the UE 120 resumes connection (e.g., by performing an RRC resumption procedure) with a base station 110 that does not support QoE operation or cannot accommodate the QoE reporting of the UE 120, the wireless network generally lacks support for techniques to signal, configure, or otherwise handle the QoE reporting of the UE 120. As a result, measurements cannot be reported by the UE, but the UE 120 continues to perform QoE measurements according to the QoE configuration, consuming processing resources of the UE 120.

[0067]

[0073] Techniques and apparatuses are described herein for handling a UE's QoE context and QoE reporting when the UE resumes a connection from an inactive state. For example, some techniques and apparatuses described herein enable handling of a UE's QoE context and QoE reporting when the UE initiates a connection to a base station that does not support QoE operations, that does not support one or more QoE configurations of the UE (e.g., in whole or in part), and / or that cannot accommodate the UE's QoE reporting (e.g., due to overload).

[0068]

[0074] In some aspects, when a base station obtains a UE context for a UE from a last serving base station, the last serving base station may transmit the UE context, or a portion thereof, with a released QoE context if the base station does not support QoE operation and / or does not support one or more QoE configurations for the UE. Here, if the base station does not support QoE operation, the UE may release all QoE configurations. Otherwise, if the base station supports QoE operation, the base station may transmit a message (e.g., an RRC resume message) to the UE that includes an explicit indication of whether the UE releases one or more QoE configurations.

[0069]

[0075] In some aspects, the last serving base station may transmit a UE context with a QoE context regardless of whether the base station supports QoE operation and / or supports QoE configurations for the UE, and the base station may ignore (e.g., discard) a QoE context, or part thereof, that is not supported. Here, if the base station does not support QoE operation, the UE may suspend all QoE configurations or may resume measurement of all QoE configurations but suspend reporting of the QoE configurations. Otherwise, if the base station supports QoE operation, the base station may transmit a message (e.g., an RRC resume message) to the UE including an explicit indication of whether the UE suspends one or more QoE configurations or whether the UE resumes measurement of one or more QoE configurations but suspend reporting of one or more QoE configurations.

[0070]

[0076] In some aspects, the UE may autonomously release, suspend, or suspend one or more QoE configurations based at least in part on the RAT implemented by the base station. For example, the UE may release, suspend, or suspend one or more QoE configurations that are not supported by an Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) RAT, e.g., LTE. In some aspects, the base station may transmit system information indicating whether the base station supports QoE operations, and the UE may release, suspend, or suspend one or more QoE configurations based at least in part on whether the base station supports QoE operations.

[0071]

[0077] In this way, the UE's QoE reporting is efficiently managed when the UE resumes connection to the base station from an inactive state. For example, the UE may perform one or more actions associated with one or more QoE configurations based at least in part on whether the base station supports QoE operations, based at least in part on whether the base station supports one or more QoE configurations for the UE, and / or based at least in part on whether the base station is experiencing overload. Thus, UE processing resources used for QoE measurement and / or network resources for QoE reporting are conserved or otherwise used efficiently.

[0072]

[0078] As noted above, Figure 4 is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from those described with respect to Figure 4.

[0073]

[0079] FIG. 5 illustrates an example 500 related to QoE operation handling in an inactive state in accordance with the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 5, the example 500 includes communication between a first base station 110, a second base station 110, and a UE 120. In some aspects, the first base station 110, the second base station 110, and the UE 120 may be included in a wireless network, such as wireless network 100. The first base station 110 and the UE 120, and / or the second base station 110 and the UE 120, may communicate via a wireless access link, which may include an uplink and a downlink. The first base station 110 and the second base station 110 may communicate via a backhaul interface (e.g., an X2 interface). The first base station 110 and the second base station 110 may be different TRPs of the base station, different base stations, different RAN nodes, etc.

[0074]

[0080] As indicated by reference numeral 505, the first base station 110 may transmit, and the UE 120 may receive, one or more QoE configurations (e.g., one or more QoE measurement configurations, one or more QoE reporting configurations, etc.). The one or more QoE configurations may be for one or more service types. For example, the one or more service types may include an MTSI service, a streaming service, an MBMS service, a network slice-related service, and / or an extended reality (XR) service, among other examples. In some aspects, one or more of the service types may be supported by the first RAT (e.g., the NR RAT) but may not be supported by the second RAT (e.g., the E-UTRAN RAT). In some aspects, the first base station 110 may configure an SRB (e.g., an SRB4) for QoE reporting by the UE 120.

[0075]

[0081] In some aspects, the first base station 110 may support (e.g., fully support) one or more QoE configurations. For example, the first base station 110 may implement a first RAT (e.g., NR). In some aspects, in connection with configuring one or more QoE configurations for the UE 120, the first base station 110 may store a UE context (e.g., a UE AS context) associated with the UE 120 that includes a QoE context (e.g., indicating the one or more QoE configurations for the UE 120).

[0076]

[0082] In some aspects, UE 120 may receive one or more QoE configurations prior to entering an inactive state (e.g., an RRC inactive mode as described with respect to FIG. 3). As indicated by reference numeral 510, UE 120 may enter an inactive state (e.g., an RRC inactive mode as described with respect to FIG. 3). For example, after receiving one or more QoE configurations from first base station 110, UE 120 may enter the inactive state. In the inactive state, the UE's 120's sessions may be suspended (e.g., unicast data transmissions to and from UE 120 may be suspended).

[0077]

[0083] The UE 120 may transition from an inactive state to a connected state (e.g., an RRC connected mode, as described with respect to FIG. 3). In the connected state, the UE 120's session may be resumed (e.g., unicast data to and from the UE 120 may be resumed). The UE 120 may transition to a connected state (e.g., resume the UE 120's connection) with the second base station 110 (e.g., a new cell). For example, the UE 120 may transition to the connected state by performing a procedure to resume the UE 120's connection with the second base station 110. In some aspects, the second base station 110 may not support QoE operation, may not support one or more QoE configurations of the UE 120, and / or may not be able to accommodate QoE reporting for one or more QoE configurations of the UE (e.g., due to overloading).

[0078]

[0084] In some aspects, prior to performing the procedure to resume the connection, the second base station 110 may transmit, and the UE 120 may receive, system information of the second base station 110 (e.g., a system information message such as a system information block (SIB)), as indicated by reference numeral 515. For example, the system information may indicate whether the second base station 110 supports QoE operations. As another example, the system information may indicate the QoE operation capabilities of the second base station 110. Thus, the UE 120 may determine, based at least in part on the system information, whether the second base station 110 supports QoE operations or which QoE operations the second base station 110 supports.

[0079]

[0085] As part of the procedure for resuming the connection, the UE 120 may send, and the second base station 110 may receive, a request for connection resumption (e.g., an RRCResumeRequest message), as indicated by reference numeral 520. In response to the request for connection resumption, the second base station 110 may perform a procedure for retrieving the UE context of the UE 120 with the first base station 110 (e.g., the last serving cell of the UE 120). As part of the procedure for retrieving the UE context, the second base station 110 may send, and the first base station 110 may receive, a request for the UE context (e.g., a Retrieve UE Context Request message), as indicated by reference numeral 525.

[0080]

[0086] As indicated by reference numeral 530, the first base station 110 may transmit, and the second base station 110 may receive, a response with the UE context (e.g., a Retrieve UE Context Response message) as part of a procedure for retrieving the UE context. In some aspects, the first base station 110 may transmit a UE context including a QoE context for the UE 120. In some aspects, the first base station 110 may transmit a released UE context with the QoE context, or a portion thereof (e.g., the first base station 110 may transmit a UE context without the QoE context, or a portion thereof).

[0081]

[0087] The first base station 110 may transmit a UE context including the QoE context, or may transmit a UE context having the QoE context, or a portion thereof (e.g., may transmit an updated UE context), that has been released based at least in part on whether the second base station 110 supports QoE operation and / or based at least in part on the QoE operation capabilities of the second base station 110. For example, the first base station 110 may transmit a UE context including the QoE context based at least in part on a determination (e.g., based on the QoE operation capabilities of the second base station 110) that the second base station 110 supports QoE operation according to the QoE context of the UE 120 (e.g., the second base station 110 supports QoE operation and supports one or more QoE configurations for the UE 120). As another example, the first base station 110 may transmit a UE context having a released QoE context based at least in part on a determination (e.g., due to QoE operation capabilities of the second base station 110) that the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation according to the QoE context of the UE 120 (e.g., the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation and / or does not support one or more QoE configurations of the UE 120). As a further example, the first base station 110 may transmit a UE context having a portion of the released QoE context based at least in part on a determination (e.g., due to QoE operation capabilities of the second base station 110) that the second base station 110 does not support a portion of the QoE context (e.g., the second base station 110 does not support one or more of the QoE configurations of the UE 120).

[0082]

[0088] If the RAT implemented by the second base station 110 includes operations related to QoE, the second base station 110 may support QoE operations. If the second base station 110 supports QoE measurement reporting according to a QoE configuration (e.g., the second base station 110 has the capability to recognize and / or process QoE reports according to a QoE configuration), the second base station 110 may support QoE configuration. In some aspects, the first base station 110 may store information indicating the QoE operation capabilities of the second base station 110, and the first base station 110 may transmit the UE context, as described above, based at least in part on the information. In some aspects, the first base station 110 may obtain the information from an OAM system, the network controller 130, another control node, etc.

[0083]

[0089] In some aspects, the first base station 110 may transmit a UE context including a QoE context regardless of whether the second base station 110 supports QoE operation according to the QoE context of the UE 120 (e.g., regardless of whether the second base station 110 supports QoE operation and / or supports one or more QoE configurations of the UE 120). That is, the first base station 110 may forward the UE context to the second base station 110. In some aspects, if the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation according to the QoE context, the second base station 110 may discard (e.g., ignore) the QoE context, or a portion thereof. For example, if the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation and / or does not support one or more QoE configurations of the UE 120, the second base station 110 may discard the QoE context. As another example, if the second base station 110 does not support one or more of the QoE configurations of the UE 120, the second base station 110 may discard a portion of the QoE context.

[0084]

[0090] As indicated by reference numeral 535, based at least in part on receiving the UE context for the UE, and as part of a procedure for resuming the connection of the UE 120, the second base station 110 may transmit, and the UE 120 may receive, a message (e.g., an RRCResume message) to resume the connection of the UE 120 with the second base station 110. The UE 120 may transition to a connected state based at least in part on receiving the message to resume the connection.

[0085]

[0091] In some aspects, the message may include an indication regarding QoE, where the message including the indication regarding QoE may indicate that the second base station 110 supports QoE operation. Thus, the UE 120 may determine, at least in part, that the second base station 110 supports QoE operation based at least in part on the message including the indication regarding QoE. In some aspects, the message may not include an indication regarding QoE, where a message lacking an indication regarding QoE may indicate that the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation. Thus, the UE 120 may determine, at least in part, that the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation based at least in part on the message lacking an indication regarding QoE.

[0086]

[0092] The second base station 110 may use the indication regarding QoE to adapt the QoE reporting of the UE 120 to that supported by the second base station 110 (e.g., according to the QoE operation capabilities of the second base station 110) and / or to adapt the QoE reporting of the UE 120 to that which can be accommodated by the second base station 110 (e.g., if the second base station 110 is experiencing overloading). Thus, the UE 120 may refrain from performing QoE measurements or reporting that are not supported by or available to the second base station 110, thereby conserving the UE 120's processing resources related to QoE measurements and / or network resources related to QoE reporting.

[0087]

[0093] In some aspects, as described above, the second base station 110 receives a UE context having a QoE context or having a released QoE context, or a portion thereof, according to the QoE operation capability of the second base station 110. Here, the manner of the indication from the second base station 110 and the operation of the UE 120 may be referred to as a “resume / release” manner. In some aspects, as described above, the second base station 110 receives a UE context having a QoE context regardless of the QoE operation capability of the second base station 110. Here, the first manner of the indication from the second base station 110 and the operation of the UE 120 may be referred to as a “resume / hold” manner, or the second manner of the indication from the second base station 110 and the operation of the UE 120 may be referred to as a “resume / suspend” manner.

[0088]

[0094] In the resume / release method, the QoE-related indication may indicate (e.g., using a single indication) that UE 120 resumes measuring and reporting all QoE configurations of UE 120, the QoE-related indication may indicate at least one QoE configuration of the one or more QoE configurations to be released by UE 120, the QoE-related indication may indicate at least one QoE configuration of the one or more QoE configurations for which measurement and reporting will be resumed by UE 120, and / or the QoE-related indication may indicate one or more new QoE configurations of UE 120.

[0089]

[0095] In the resume / suspend method, the QoE-related indication may indicate (e.g., using a single indication) that UE 120 resumes measuring and reporting all QoE configurations of UE 120, the QoE-related indication may indicate at least one QoE configuration of one or more QoE configurations to be released (or suspended) by UE 120, and / or the QoE-related indication may indicate at least one QoE configuration of one or more QoE configurations for which measurement and reporting is to be resumed by UE 120.

[0090]

[0096] In the resume / pause scheme, the QoE-related indication may indicate (e.g., using a single indication) that UE 120 will resume measuring and reporting all QoE configurations of UE 120, the QoE-related indication may indicate (e.g., using a single indication) that UE 120 will suspend reporting of all QoE configurations of UE 120, the QoE-related indication may indicate at least one QoE configuration of the one or more QoE configurations for which UE 120 will suspend reporting, and / or the QoE-related indication may indicate at least one QoE configuration of the one or more QoE configurations for which UE 120 will resume reporting.

[0091]

[0097] As indicated by reference numeral 540, the UE 120 may perform at least one operation of one or more QoE configurations of the UE 120 (e.g., in connection with transitioning from an inactive state to a connected state). In some aspects, the UE 120 may perform the at least one operation based at least in part on whether the second base station 110 supports QoE operations. In some aspects, the UE 120 may perform the at least one operation based at least in part on an indication regarding QoE in a message received from the second base station 110 as part of a procedure for resuming the connection of the UE 120.

[0092]

[0098] In some aspects, the system information received by the UE 120 indicates whether the second base station 110 supports QoE operation, as described above. Here, to perform one or more actions, the UE 120 may release (e.g., delete) and / or suspend (e.g., deactivate) all QoE configurations of the UE 120 based at least in part on the system information indicating that the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation. Additionally or alternatively, to perform one or more actions, the UE 120 may resume measuring (e.g., performing measurements) all QoE configurations of the UE 120, but may suspend reporting (e.g., refrain from reporting) all QoE configurations of the UE 120 based at least in part on the system information indicating that the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation. In some aspects, to perform one or more operations, UE 120 may resume measuring and reporting all of its QoE configurations based at least in part on a system information message indicating that second base station 110 supports QoE operations (e.g., UE 120 may perform measurements, restart SRB4, and resume QoE reporting). That is, UE 120 may resume measuring and reporting all of its QoE configurations, provided that there is no indication regarding QoE in the message received from second base station 110 indicating otherwise.

[0093]

[0099] In some aspects, the UE 120 may obtain information indicating the RAT used by the second base station 110 (e.g., from the first base station 110, from system information transmitted by the second base station 110, etc.). In some aspects, the UE 120 may determine whether the second base station 110 supports QoE operation and / or may determine the QoE operation capabilities of the second base station 110 based at least in part on the RAT used by the second base station 110. For example, an NR cell and an E-UTRAN cell may have different QoE operation capabilities. Specifically, an E-UTRAN cell may not support a QoE configuration for an XR service type, a QoE configuration for an MBMS service type, and / or a QoE configuration for a network slice-related service type, among other examples.

[0094]

[0100] In some aspects, to perform the one or more actions, UE 120 may (e.g., autonomously) release or suspend at least one QoE configuration of the one or more QoE configurations based at least in part on a determination that the at least one QoE configuration is not supported by the RAT used by the second base station 110. In some aspects, to perform the one or more actions, UE 120 may resume measurement of all QoE configurations but suspend reporting of at least one QoE configuration of the one or more QoE configurations based at least in part on a determination that the at least one QoE configuration is not supported by the RAT used by the second base station.

[0095]

[0101] In some aspects, the UE 120 may perform one or more actions based at least in part on an indication regarding QoE, or the lack thereof, in a message received from the second base station 110 as part of a procedure for resuming the UE 120's connection.

[0096]

[0102] In the resume / release manner, if the second base station 110 does not support QoE operations (e.g., the message lacks an indication regarding QoE), the UE 120 may release all QoE configurations of the UE 120 (e.g., upon receiving the message) to perform one or more operations. In the resume / release manner, if the second base station 110 supports QoE operations (e.g., the message includes an indication regarding QoE), the UE 120 may perform one or more operations based at least in part on the indication regarding QoE. For example, if the indication indicates that UE 120 resumes measurement and reporting of all QoE configurations, UE 120 may resume measurement (e.g., performing measurements) and reporting (e.g., generating and transmitting QoE reports) of all QoE configurations of UE 120 to perform one or more operations; if the indication indicates at least one QoE configuration to be released by UE 120, UE 120 may release the at least one QoE configuration and resume measurement and reporting of any other QoE configurations of UE 120 to perform one or more operations; and if the reporting indicates at least one QoE configuration to be resumed, UE 120 may resume measuring and reporting of at least one QoE configuration and release any other QoE configurations of UE 120, to perform one or more operations; and / or if the indication indicates one or more new QoE configurations of UE 120, UE 120 may release all stored QoE configurations (e.g., one or more QoE configurations received from first base station 110) and apply (e.g., store, activate, etc.) one or more new QoE configurations, to perform one or more operations.

[0097]

[0103] In the resume / hold scheme, if the second base station 110 does not support QoE operations (e.g., the message lacks an indication regarding QoE), the UE 120 may suspend all QoE configurations of the UE 120 (e.g., upon receiving the message) to perform one or more operations. In the resume / hold scheme, if the second base station 110 supports QoE operations (e.g., the message includes an indication regarding QoE), the UE 120 may perform one or more operations based at least in part on the indication regarding QoE. For example, if the indication indicates that UE120 will resume measuring and reporting all QoE configurations, UE120 may resume measuring and reporting all QoE configurations of UE120 in order to perform one or more operations; if the indication indicates at least one QoE configuration to be released (or suspended) by UE120, UE120 may release (or suspend) the at least one QoE configuration and resume measuring and reporting of any other QoE configurations of UE120 in order to perform one or more operations; and / or if the indication indicates at least one QoE configuration for which measurement and reporting is to be resumed, UE120 may resume measuring and reporting of at least one QoE configuration and suspend any other QoE configurations of UE120 in order to perform one or more operations.

[0098]

[0104] In the resume / pause manner, if the second base station 110 does not support QoE operation (e.g., the message lacks an indication regarding QoE), the UE 120 may resume measurement of all QoE configurations of the UE 120 (e.g., upon receiving the message) and suspend QoE reporting for all QoE configurations of the UE 120, in order to perform one or more operations. In the resume / pause manner, if the second base station 110 supports QoE operation (e.g., the message includes an indication regarding QoE), the UE 120 may perform one or more operations based at least in part on the indication regarding QoE. For example, if the indication indicates that UE 120 resumes measurement and reporting of all QoE configurations, then UE 120 may resume measurement and reporting of all QoE configurations of UE 120 (e.g., UE 120 may perform measurements, resume SRB4, and resume QoE reporting) to perform one or more operations; if the indication indicates that UE 120 suspends reporting of all QoE configurations, then UE 120 may resume measurement of all QoE configurations and suspend reporting of all QoE configurations to perform one or more operations; If UE120 indicates at least one QoE configuration for which to suspend reporting, UE120 may resume measurement of all QoE configurations, suspend reporting of at least one QoE configuration, and resume reporting of any other QoE configurations of UE120, in order to perform one or more operations; and / or if the indication indicates at least one QoE configuration for which UE120 resumes reporting, UE120 may resume measurement of all QoE configurations, resume reporting of at least one QoE configuration, and suspend reporting of any other QoE configurations of UE120, in order to perform one or more operations.

[0099]

[0105] In some aspects (e.g., in a resume / pause scheme), if the indication regarding QoE indicates that UE 120 resumes measuring and reporting one or more QoE configurations of UE 120, but no SRB (e.g., SRB4) for QoE reporting is configured for UE 120 by the second base station 110, then UE 120 may suspend reporting of all QoE configurations and release the SRB configuration (e.g., SRB configuration received from the first base station 110) for QoE reporting stored by UE 120 (e.g., SRB4 configuration) to perform one or more operations. In some aspects (e.g., in a resume / pause scheme), if the indication regarding QoE indicates that UE 120 resumes measuring and reporting one or more QoE configurations of UE 120, but second base station 110 releases or suspends an SRB configuration (e.g., an SRB4 configuration) for QoE reporting, UE 120 may suspend reporting of all QoE configurations and release or suspend an SRB configuration (e.g., an SRB4 configuration) for QoE reporting to perform one or more operations.

[0100]

[0106] In this manner, UE 120 may perform operations of one or more QoE configurations of UE 120 that are adapted to the QoE operation capabilities of second base station 110 and / or the QoE report availability of second base station 110. Thus, the operations facilitate efficient QoE reporting, thereby preserving processing resources of UE 120 used for QoE measurement and / or network resources used for QoE reporting.

[0101]

[0107] As noted above, Figure 5 is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from those described with respect to Figure 5.

[0102]

[0108] 6 illustrates an example process 600 performed, for example, by a UE, in accordance with the present disclosure. The example process 600 is an example in which a UE (e.g., UE 120) performs operations related to QoE operation handling in an inactive state.

[0103]

[0109] 6, in some aspects, process 600 may include receiving one or more QoE configurations from the first base station prior to entering the inactive state (block 610).

[0149]

[0155] In a second aspect, alone or in combination with the first aspect, a released UE context having a QoE context, or a portion of a QoE context, is transmitted based at least in part on another base station not supporting QoE operation according to the UE's QoE context.

[0150]

[0156] In a third aspect, alone or in combination with one or more of the first and second aspects, a UE context including a QoE context is transmitted regardless of whether another base station supports QoE operation according to the QoE context of the UE.

[0151]

[0157] 8 shows example blocks of process 800, in some aspects process 800 may include additional, fewer, different, or differently arranged blocks compared to those shown in FIG 8. Additionally or alternatively, two or more of the blocks of process 800 may be performed in parallel.

[0152]

[0158] 9 illustrates an example process 900 performed, for example, by a base station, in accordance with the present disclosure. The example process 900 is an example in which a base station (e.g., base station 110) performs operations related to QoE operation handling in an inactive state.

[0153]

[0159] 9, in some aspects, process 900 may include sending a request for a UE context to another base station, the UE context including the QoE context of the UE (block 910). For example, a base station (e.g., using communications manager 150 and / or transmitting component 1104 shown in FIG. 11) may send a request for a UE context to another base station, as described above, the UE context including the QoE context of the UE.

[0154]

[0160] 9, in some aspects, process 900 may include receiving the released UE context including or having the QoE context, or a portion of the QoE context, from another base station (block 920). For example, a base station (e.g., using communications manager 150 and / or receiving component 1102 shown in FIG. 11) may receive the released UE context including or having the QoE context, or a portion of the QoE context, from another base station, as described above.

[0155]

[0161] Process 900 may include additional aspects, such as any single aspect or any combination of aspects related to one or more other processes described below and / or elsewhere herein.

[0156]
