Abstract

A first network device enables active measurement in a network path between a second network device acting as a controller of a network performance observability protocol and a wireless device. The first network device captures a measurement packet from the second network device; determines a destination of the measurement packet; and determines a measurement model associated with the destination. The measurement model represents a correspondence between one or more parameters related to the wireless device and estimated values of a measurement for the wireless device. The first network device determines a current value of a parameter related to the wireless device; determines, based on the current value of the parameter and the measurement model, a current estimation of the measurement for the wireless device; and responds to the measurement packet based on the current estimation of the measurement while avoiding to transmit the measurement packet to the wireless device.
