    Abstract: A device translates between a first communication network, in particular a deterministic communication network, and a second communication network, in particular a mobile communication network, in particular a 5G communication network. The device is configured to execute an application function that is configured to translate between Quality-of-Service, QoS, parameters of the first communication network and QoS parameters of the second communication network. A QoS profile includes the QoS parameters of the first communication network translated by the application function and, optionally, additional QoS parameters originating from the second communication network. The device is further configured to execute a signaling procedure configured to exchange the translated QoS parameters within the second communication network.

    Abstract: An apparatus for managing communication links with a plurality of traffic nodes registered with a radio network configured to receive a request from a first traffic node to establish a communication link with a second traffic node, which is one of the plurality of traffic nodes. The apparatus further receives, from the first traffic node, object description information associated with the request, compares the object description information with stored information relating to at least some of the plurality of traffic nodes, determines, based on the comparison, a likelihood that the object description information pertains to the second traffic node and decides, based on the determination, whether to grant the request. The apparatus is able to act as a traffic node manager for the radio network and could be a network node such as a Base Station or Base Transceiver Station or a dedicated vehicle identity manager for example.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a Time Sensitive Network (TSN). The disclosure provides an implementation for time sensitive communication across one or more TSN domains of the TSN over a mobile network, for example, over a 5G network. To this end, the disclosure provides a mobile-network entity for interacting with the TSN domains, and provide a TSN-aware mobile network entity. The mobile-network entity receives a management request, which indicates one or more TSN management operations and one or more TSN parameters, from a TSN management entity. It then sends an instruction, which indicates one or more mobile-network operations, one or more mobile-network parameters, and optionally at least one TSN parameter, to one or more TSN-aware mobile-network entities. The TSN-aware mobile-network entities receive accordingly the instructions and perform the mobile-network operation according to the mobile-network parameter, and optionally the TSN parameter.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a network operator (OMS), a teleoperation application (TOApplication) and an application (TODriver) for a teleoperable vehicle. The OMS is capable of creating a network slice for teleoperating a teleoperable vehicle along at least one route, receiving, from the TOApplication, a slice configuration request comprising the QoS for the at least one route, and configuring the network slice to support the QoS for the at least one route. The TOApplication is capable of communicating, towards the OMS, a request for creating the network slice, receiving, from the teleoperable vehicle, a teleoperation service request comprising a set of teleoperation configurations, mapping each teleoperation configuration to a respective QoS, and sending the slice configuration request comprising the QoS to the OMS. The TODriver is capable of sending the teleoperation service request to the TOApplication, and controlling the route to be followed by the teleoperable vehicle based on information from the TOApplication.
