Predictive back-off reporting in telecommunication systems

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code,
• wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
• determine that at least one obstacle has entered at least one predefined region;
• transmit to at least one network entity at least one indication comprising at least one predicted-power back off (P-PBO) value;
• generate at least one predictive-PBO report (P-PBOR);
• and
• transmit the at least one P-PBOR to the at least one network entity,
• wherein the at least one P-PBOR is a maximum predicted PBO based upon speed of at least one user, trajectory of at least one user, speed of at least one object, and trajectory of at least one object, and is associated with at least one time stamp,
• wherein the at least one time stamp comprises at least one frame number, at least one subframe number, at least one frame offset, at least one subframe offset, at least one slot number, at least one slot offset, and at least one subslot offset,
• wherein the at least one P-PBOR is associated with at least one interval value that is based upon at least one PBO offset and at least one time offset, and is configured by the at least one network entity,
• wherein the at least one P-PBOR is associated with at least one interval value configured by the apparatus based upon trajectory of at least one user, trajectory of at least one obstacle, speed of at least one user, and speed of at least one obstacle,
• wherein the at least one P-PBOR is transmitted upon:
• the one or more of at least one user and at least one obstacle crossing into the at least one predefined region, and
• according to at least one threshold configured by the at least one network entity,
• wherein the at least one P-PBOR is transmitted according to a periodicity associated according to:
• at least one time-based threshold;
• at least one fixed PBO threshold;
• at least one variable PBO threshold;
• at least one threshold configured by the at least one network entity;
• at least one threshold configured by the apparatus;
• and
• speed of the at least one user.
