    Abstract: A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes detecting user plane congestion at an eNodeB in connection with subscribers of a first one of a plurality of public land management networks (“PLMNs”) sharing a radio access network (“RAN”), identifying one or more of the PLMNs to be notified of the detected congestion in accordance with an agreement between the PLMNs, and reporting RAN congestion information (“RCI”) regarding the detected congestion to only the identified one or more of the PLMNs. The detecting may comprise determining whether detected user plane congestion exceeds a first congestion threshold indicated for the first one of the PLMNs. The method may further comprise terminating the RCI reporting when the detected congestion falls below a second congestion threshold specified for the first one of the PLMNs. The first and second thresholds may be indicated in a table associated with the eNodeB.

    Abstract translation: 在一个示例实施例中提供了一种方法,并且包括检测与共享无线电接入网络(“RAN”)的多个公共陆地管理网络(“PLMN”)中的第一个的用户相关联的eNodeB处的用户平面拥塞,识别 根据PLMN之间的协议通知所检测到的拥塞的一个或多个PLMN,以及将所检测到的拥塞的RAN拥塞信息(“RCI”)仅报告给所识别的一个或多个PLMN。 检测可以包括确定检测到的用户平面拥塞是否超过为第一个PLMN指示的第一拥塞阈值。 该方法还可以包括:当检测到的拥塞下降到针对第一个PLMN指定的第二拥塞阈值时终止RCI报告。 可以在与eNodeB相关联的表中指示第一和第二阈值。
