    摘要: A method for switching between data connections for a mobile communication device is disclosed, the method comprising the steps of establishing both a cellular data connection and a Wi-Fi data connection between the mobile communication device and a server; and concurrently maintaining the cellular data connection and the Wi-Fi data connection. The method further comprises the steps of collecting monitoring data by concurrently monitoring a first ping of the cellular data connection and a second ping of the Wi-Fi data connection; using either the cellular data connection or the Wi-Fi data connection for data communication with the server at any one time; and collecting switching data, the switching data indicative of a frequency of switching. The method further comprises the step of determining at a predetermined time and based on the monitoring data and the switching data whether switching should be performed.

    摘要: A system, devices and procedures for providing QoS monitoring in a 5G network are described. The QoS monitoring is per QoS flow per UE or GTP-U path QoS monitoring. A SMF sends a request to a UPF and NG-RAN to report UL/DL packet delay and RTT between the UPF and a UE or an N3 and N9 interface, along with thresholds for reporting the measurements. The UPF sends a report containing the measurements when the threshold is met. The delays include average, minimum and maximum packet delays. The request also indicates a state of QoS monitoring, S-NSSAI and 5QI to monitor, whether event-based/periodic/session release-based QoS monitoring reporting per QoS flow per UE is supported, minimum waiting time between consecutive reports for event-triggered QoS monitoring reporting, and a period to report the measured packet delay.

    摘要: A method including monitoring, by a first device communicating meshnet data via a meshnet connection with a second device in a mesh network, occurrence of a triggering event indicating that the first device and the second device are to communicate the meshnet data via a relay connection; determining, by the first device, occurrence of the triggering event based at least in part on a rate of communication of the meshnet data via the meshnet connection; and transmitting, by the first device to the second device based at least in part on determining the occurrence of the triggering event, a message indicating that the first device and the second device are to communicate the meshnet data via a relay connection is disclosed. Various other aspects are contemplated.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Disclosed is a method for managing the quality of service (QoS) of a session by using an NAS protocol in a next-generation 5G communication environment.

    摘要: There is disclosed example techniques to include obtaining a filtering rule via a control plane message that includes information to identify a source of a general packet radio service (GPRS) tunneling protocol (GTP) user-plane (GTP-U) packet. The example techniques also include configuring, based on the information to identify the source, a virtual switch to identify the source of the GTP-U packet to use in the filtering rule to cause a received GTP-U packet to be sent to a local edge server or a mobile core network for processing based on at least a portion of a first extension header included in the GTP-U packet.

    摘要: A system may include a client device running multiple client-side applications and server equipment running multiple server-side applications. One or more traffic aggregators may be provided between the client-side applications and the server-side applications. Each traffic aggregator may aggregate application traffic from the multiple applications to form one or more classes of aggregated data. Interfaces may be provided between the traffic aggregators and the applications to customize application traffic. Traffic aggregators in the system may be dynamically updated.
