Abstract
Systems and methods described herein provide intelligent scheduling in a radio access network (RAN). A RAN device receives traffic characterization model parameters and also receives data for a communication session with a User Equipment (UE) device. The RAN device identifies traffic characteristics for the communication session based on the traffic characterization model parameters. The traffic characteristics include a predicted level of periodicity for a future time interval. The RAN device selects a scheduling discipline for the communication session based on the projected level of periodicity for the future time interval, and implements the selected scheduling discipline for the communication session.
