METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR COMMUNICATION MODE SELECTION BASED ON CONTENT TYPE

摘要

In connection with selecting a communication mode based on traffic type information, a method, apparatus, and computer program product for wireless communication are provided. In one example, a network entity (eg, WiFi router, picocell, pentocell, eNB, etc.) obtains traffic type information about the content to be transmitted by the network entity, and transmits the content based on the traffic type information. Determine a communication mode to use, and to transmit content using the determined communication mode. In an aspect, the traffic type information may indicate that the content is the best effort traffic type, the latency sensitive traffic type, or the no traffic type is available.
