Abstract

Systems and methods relating to direct bit rate adaptation for end-to-end communication via a cellular communications network are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of operation of a radio access node in a cellular communications network includes obtaining a bit rate associated with a radio bearer between the radio access node and a wireless device. The radio bearer between the radio access node and the wireless device is part of an end-to-end communication path between the wireless device, as a first end-point of the end-to-end communication path, and a second end-point. The method further includes transmitting the bit rate associated with the radio bearer to the wireless device. By transmitting the bit rate associated with the radio bearer to the wireless device, the radio access node controls a bit rate for the end-to-end communication path between the wireless device and the second end-point.
