QoE Report Scheduling for UE Congestion-Aware Network Reporting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The burden on network side devices is exacerbated by large QoE measurement reports from numerous user equipment (UEs), leading to potential network congestion when reporting is resumed, especially in scenarios where UEs are handed over or reconnected to devices that do not support QoE functions.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a method where user terminals receive first indication information from the network side device to manage QoE measurement reporting, including timers, limited sizes, service types, priorities, and IDs, allowing controlled reporting to alleviate congestion.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If user terminals report all QoE measurement reports to the network side device, then complete QoE data collection is achieved, but network congestion occurs when many UEs send large reports simultaneously
Solution Approach 1:
The network side device requests only specific QoE measurement reports that are necessary at given times, rather than requiring UEs to report all available reports. This partial action approach reduces network traffic while ensuring essential QoE data is collected for network optimization decisions.
Solution Approach 2:
The network side device predicts future network conditions and proactively requests QoE measurement reports in advance before congestion occurs. By performing preliminary actions to gather necessary data ahead of time, the system avoids last-minute rushes that cause network congestion while maintaining data completeness.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If the network side device controls reporting to reduce burden, then network congestion is avoided, but QoE measurement data completeness may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the network side device receives QoE measurement reports, analyzes network conditions, and uses this information to make informed decisions about which additional reports to request. This feedback loop ensures that data collection is optimized based on actual network needs, maintaining completeness while managing load.
Solution Approach 2:
The network side device dynamically changes reporting parameters such as request frequency, report types, and timing based on current network conditions and priorities. By adjusting these parameters flexibly, the system optimizes the balance between data completeness and network load reduction in real-time.
3Adaptability or versatility
If UEs are handed over to network side devices that do not support QoE functions, then mobility is maintained, but QoE measurement reporting capability is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The QoE measurement functionality is segmented into two parts: collection at the UE level and processing/requesting at the network side device level. This segmentation allows UEs to maintain QoE measurement capabilities during handover while the network side device that receives the reports may have different functional capabilities, ensuring mobility is not restricted.
Solution Approach 2:
The UE acts as an intermediary that maintains QoE measurement reporting capability even when handover occurs to network side devices without full QoE support. The UE continues to collect and report measurements, serving as a bridge that preserves the QoE functionality across network transitions.
