Claim 17:
18. An apparatus for determining whether a cell can guarantee at least one data transmission parameter, the apparatus comprising:
processing circuitry; and
memory containing instructions executable by the processing circuitry whereby the apparatus is operative to:
determine, in response to a notification of an attach procedure of a User Equipment (UE) to attach to a cell, a traffic profile for the UE, wherein the traffic profile indicates the at least one data transmission parameter for data transmissions to and/or from the UE; and
determine whether the cell can guarantee the at least one data transmission parameter for the UE, while allowing the UE to remain attached to or camped on the cell, based on at least one traffic profile of at least one other UE attached to the cell, the traffic profile and available resources for the cell, wherein the at least one data transmission parameter comprises at least one of:
a maximum average latency for data transmissions;
a maximum latency for data transmissions; and
a maximum packet loss for data transmissions.
