Abstract  Abstract

Embodiments describe mechanisms for an eNB possibly assisted by a UE to detect and possibly alleviate user plane congestion. In some embodiments the eNB implements UE assisted packet dropping where the UE requests the eNB drop packets in a sub-QCI that meet designated criteria such as exceeding a sub-QCI delay threshold. Other embodiments detect periods of congestion and send congestion indication to the core network when the congestion period exceeds a threshold or when the user experience is degraded. Some embodiments implement both sets of functionality.
