Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, allocating, by a processing system including a processor, a first subset of resources to a first plurality of applications and a second subset of the resources to a second plurality of applications, wherein the allocating is based on respective statuses associated with the first plurality of applications and the second plurality of applications, and assigning, by the processing system, a respective bitrate to each application of the first plurality of applications, wherein the assigning of the respective bitrate to each application of the first plurality of applications is based on: a first threshold associated with a re-buffering of content, and a second threshold associated with the statuses. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Method and apparatus for streaming video applications in cellular networks

To efficiently mitigate cell coverage disruptions caused by either unplanned equipment failures or planned outages during maintenance activities, an efficient cell site outage mitigation system is provided to calculate an optimal configuration for neighboring cell site devices before adjusting the cell site configuration settings to cover the coverage gap. The optimal configuration is determined using an offline model learner. Radio frequency propagation models and user demand and distribution models can be used to determine the offline solution. The optimal configuration setting learnt using an offline model is then implemented when an outage is determined to have occurred in the operational field.
