    Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved quality of service flow. A method may include receiving an indication at a radio resource control entity or service data adaptation protocol layer entity in a radio protocol of a receiver from a transmitter. The indication can include instructions to relocate a quality of service flow from a source to a target data radio bearer. The method may also include starting a timer associated with the quality of service. In addition, the method may include buffering data packets received as part of the quality of service flow from the target data radio bearer during a duration of the timer. Further, the method may include allowing for the transmission of the buffered data packets of the quality of service flow received from the target data radio bearer to an upper protocol layer after the duration of the timer has lapsed or stopped.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for distinguishing minimization of drive tests (MDT) logging through different radio resource controller (RRC) states. One method may include receiving, from a network element, a logged measurement configuration comprising specific content for a user equipment depending on a connection state of the user equipment. The method may also include validating the logged measurement configuration, wherein the validating is embodied by the network element prior to transitioning to a different user equipment state, or by a user equipment after entering a logging state, for which the logged measurement configuration was designated. The method may further include performing logging of a measurement according to the content of the logged measurement configuration. In addition, the method may include tagging the logged measurement. The method may also include transmitting the tagged logged measurement to the network element.
