Base station conditions resource adaptation

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a system comprising a processor, a time varying indication of network traffic, parsed as a function of content type, particular to a client device;
• analyzing the network traffic particular to the client device for a time-related pattern in consumption of the network traffic having the content type;
• and
• inferring a current playback state of an application operating on a client device at least in part from the time-related pattern.

A computer readable storage medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a system comprising a processor to perform operations, comprising:

• parsing traffic transmitted to a client device as a function of a set of predetermined traffic categories;
• identifying parsed traffic having a traffic category of the set of predetermined traffic categories determined to be provided for an application on the client device;
• and
• monitoring the parsed traffic at a rate configured to facilitate an inference of a current playback state and a change in the current playback state of the application on the client device.

A system, comprising:

• means for analyzing time varying network traffic, parsed as a function of content type, particular to a client device;
• means for identifying a change in consumption of the network traffic having the content type;
• means for inferring a current playback state of an application operating on a client device at least in part from the change in consumption;
• and
• means for facilitating an increase in or a decrease of network access point resources in response to determining current network access point resources fail to match at least the current playback state of the application.
