Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods for reporting user equipment activity during a 5G Media Streaming (5GMS) uplink streaming session are provided, which may include initializing contribution reporting based on selected user preferences during media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session, and transmitting a contribution report associated with the media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session. The approach may further include generating a final contribution report associated with the media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session in response to receiving a signal to stop media streaming.
Claims20
A method for reporting user equipment activity during a 5G Media Streaming (5GMS) uplink streaming session, the method being performed by at least one processor, the method comprising:
- initializing contribution reporting during media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session;
- transmitting a contribution report associated with the media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session, wherein the contribution report is based on selected user preferences,
- wherein the contribution report comprises a media entry type parameter that indicates whether a media entry is a universal resource locator (URL) endpoint on a 5GMS Application Server (AS) or a URL of a document to be downloaded from the 5GMS AS;
- and
- in response to receiving a signal to stop media streaming, generating a final contribution report associated with the media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session.
A device for reporting user equipment activity during a 5G Media Streaming (5GMS) uplink streaming session, the device comprising:
- at least one memory configured to store program code;
- and
- at least one processor configured to read the program code and operate as instructed by the program code, the program code including:
- initializing code configured to cause the at least one processor to initialize contribution reporting during media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session;
- first transmitting code configured to cause the at least one processor to transmit a contribution report associated with the media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session, wherein the contribution report is based on selected user preferences,
- wherein the contribution report comprises a media entry type parameter that indicates whether a media entry is a universal resource locator (URL) endpoint on a 5GMS Application Server (AS) or a URL of a document to be downloaded from the 5GMS AS;
- and
- in response to receiving a signal to stop media streaming, first generating code configured to cause the at least one processor to generate a final contribution report associated with the media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:
- one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device for 5G media streaming (5GMS), cause the one or more processors to:
- initialize contribution reporting during media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session;
- transmit a contribution report associated with the media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session, wherein the contribution report is based on user preferences,
- wherein the contribution report comprises a media entry type parameter that indicates whether a media entry is a universal resource locator (URL) endpoint on a 5GMS Application Server (AS) or a URL of a document to be downloaded from the 5GMS AS;
- and
- in response to receiving a signal to stop media streaming, generate a final contribution report associated with the media streaming during the 5GMS uplink streaming session.
