Method and apparatus for service level agreement monitoring and violation mitigation in wireless communication networks

Abstract

An apparatus includes a network interface, a processor and a memory. The memory contains instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to identify a target base station and a target slice comprising an electronic device for service level agreement (SLA) monitoring, send, via the network interface to the target base station, a trigger message for initiating SLA reporting by the electronic device of the target slice connected to the target base station, receive, from the target base station via the network interface, at least one SLA report from the electronic device of the target slice, determine an SLA violation level based on the at least one SLA report, determine updated scheduling parameters based on the SLA violation level, and send the updated scheduling parameters to the target base station via the network interface.
