Delay reporting for network segments in an end-to-end communication path

A method performed by a computing device, comprising:

• receiving, from a first computing device, an end-to-end delay report based on an end-to-end delay measurement between the first computing device and a second computing device;
• and
• transmitting a message comprising delay information based on the end-to-end delay report to a network element of a first communication network, wherein:
• the end-to-end delay measurement is for a communication path spanning the first communication network and one or more second communication networks,
• the first communication network is a cellular network and the one or more second communication networks are non-cellular networks,
• the first computing device is reachable via the communication path via a tethering link segment of a first one of the one or more second communication networks,
• the second computing device is reachable via the communication path via a second one of the one or more second communication networks, and
• the message is configured to enable the network element of the first communication network to configure the first communication network to provide sufficient Quality of Service (QoS) to support an end-to-end QoS requirement based on the delay information.

A computing device, comprising:

• means for receiving, from a first computing device, an end-to-end delay report based on an end-to-end delay measurement between the first computing device and a second computing device;

One or more non-transitory processor-readable media having stored thereon processor-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, from a first computing device, an end-to-end delay report based on an end-to-end delay measurement between the first computing device and a second computing device;
• and
• transmitting a message comprising delay information based on the end-to-end delay report to a network element of a first communication network, wherein:
• the end-to-end delay measurement is for a communication path spanning the first communication network and one or more second communication networks,
• the first communication network is a cellular network and the one or more second communication networks are non-cellular networks,
• the first computing device is reachable via the communication path via a tethering link segment of a first one of the one or more second communication networks,
• the second computing device is reachable via the communication path via a second one of the one or more second communication networks, and
• the message is configured to enable the network element of the first communication network to configure the first communication network to provide sufficient Quality of Service (QoS) to support an end-to-end QoS requirement based on the delay information.
