5.21 Configuration for RAN user plane congestion detection and reporting

23.0023GPPNetwork architectureRelease 17TS

RAN user plane congestion detection and reporting enables the PCRF to take the RAN user plane congestion status into account for policy decisions. This functionality is applicable only in case of UTRAN/E-UTRAN accesses. The configuration of the related entities is depicted in Figure 5.21.
