Quality of Experience Measurement
A first base station receives, from a core network element, a context message comprising an initial context setup request or a user equipment (UE) context modification. The context message comprises a quality of experience (QoE) measurement collection (QMC) configuration for a second base station associated with a wireless device. The first base station determines QMC activation for the second base station; and sends, to the second base station, a request including the QMC configuration. The first base station receives, from the second base station, a QoE measurement report associated with the second base station; and transmits the QoE measurement report to a multi-cell/multicast coordination entity (MCE).
1 . A method, comprising:
receiving, by a first base station from a core network element, a context message comprising an initial context setup request or a user equipment (UE) context modification, wherein the context message comprises a quality of experience (QoE) measurement collection (QMC) configuration for a second base station associated with a wireless device;
determining, by the first base station, QMC activation for the second base station;
sending, by the first base station to the second base station, a request including the QMC configuration;
receiving, by the first base station from the second base station, a QoE measurement report associated with the second base station; and
transmitting, by the first base station, the QoE measurement report to a multi-cell/multicast coordination entity (MCE).
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the QoE measurement report is received at the first base station from the second base station using a radio resource control (RRC) transfer message.
3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising sending the QMC configuration to the wireless device.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining of the QMC activation is based on subscription information of the wireless device.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the QoE measurement report is generated by the wireless device served by both the first base station and the second base station.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the QMC configuration indicates that the QoE measurement report received by the second base station is to be provided to the MCE.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the context message from the core network element comprises at least one of:
an identifier of the wireless device within a mobility management entity (MME); the identifier of the wireless device within an AMF;
the identifier of the wireless device within an eNB; or
the identifier of the wireless device within a next generation (NG) radio access network (NG-RAN).
8 . A first base station comprising:
one or more processors; and
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the first base station to:
receive, from a core network element, a context message comprising an initial context setup request or a user equipment (UE) context modification, wherein the context message comprises a quality of experience (QoE) measurement collection (QMC) configuration for a second base station associated with a wireless device;
determine QMC activation for the second base station;
send, to the second base station, a request including the QMC configuration;
receive, from the second base station, a QoE measurement report associated with the second base station; and
transmit the QoE measurement report to a multi-cell/multicast coordination entity (MCE).
9 . The first base station of claim 8 , wherein the QoE measurement report is received at the first base station from the second base station using a radio resource control (RRC) transfer message.
10 . The first base station of claim 8 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to send the QMC configuration to the wireless device.
11 . The first base station of claim 8 , wherein the determining of the QMC activation is based on subscription information of the wireless device.
12 . The first base station of claim 8 , wherein the QoE measurement report is generated by the wireless device served by both the first base station and the second base station.
13 . The first base station of claim 8 , wherein the QMC configuration indicates that the QoE measurement report received by the second base station is to be provided to the MCE.
14 . The first base station of claim 8 , wherein the context message from the core network element comprises at least one of:
an identifier of the wireless device within a mobility management entity (MME); the identifier of the wireless device within an AMF;
the identifier of the wireless device within an eNB; or
the identifier of the wireless device within a next generation (NG) radio access network (NG-RAN).
15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a first base station, cause the first base station to:
receive, from a core network element, a context message comprising an initial context setup request or a user equipment (UE) context modification, wherein the context message comprises a quality of experience (QoE) measurement collection (QMC) configuration for a second base station associated with a wireless device;
determine QMC activation for the second base station;
send, to the second base station, a request including the QMC configuration;
receive, from the second base station, a QoE measurement report associated with the second base station; and
transmit the QoE measurement report to a multi-cell/multicast coordination entity (MCE).
16 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the QoE measurement report is received at the first base station from the second base station using a radio resource control (RRC) transfer message.
17 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the instructions further cause the base station to send the QMC configuration to the wireless device.
18 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the determining of the QMC activation is based on subscription information of the wireless device.
19 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the QoE measurement report is generated by the wireless device served by both the first base station and the second base station; and wherein the QMC configuration indicates that the QoE measurement report received by the second base station is to be provided to the MCE.
20 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the context message from the core network element comprises at least one of:
an identifier of the wireless device within a mobility management entity (MME); the identifier of the wireless device within an AMF;
the identifier of the wireless device within an eNB; or
the identifier of the wireless device within a next generation (NG) radio access network (NG-RAN).
