Signalling of deterministic system capabilities depending on absolute transmission time (TSN, DETNET, etc.)

Abstract

A method and apparatus to perform communicating with a network device in a communication network by another network device, information including characteristics of a 3 GPP system network associated with the another network device; based at least on the information, determining scheduling information for communication by at least one network node in the 3 GPP system network; and sending the scheduling information for the communication in the 3 GPP system network. Further, to perform communicating with a network device in a communication network by another network device information including characteristics of an 3 GPP system network associated with the another network device; and based on the characteristics, communicating with the network device to identify at least one interval of time to achieve a specific deterministic latency for a communication in the 3 GPP system network by at least one network node.
