Abstract

The present document studies use cases, analyses their information needs and provides recommendations related to exposing network information for vertical industries in an abstracted manner. The assumption here is that the radio part of the network between the edge cloud and the UE is typically the weakest link, impacting to a large part the quality of the connection; yet, other properties of the cellular network will be considered too. The aim for the abstraction is to provide a developer-friendly API that hides the complexity and does not require the developers to have deep understanding of the underlying 3GPP network and that is supporting the use cases and related requirements from vertical industries. Different industry segments have different needs for the abstracted information and a few different industry areas are used to study the use cases and the related information needs. The outcome of the study is to generate recommendations for the future standard work on exposing abstracted cellular network information. Such abstracted network information is intended to be usable by vertical industries application developers without deep understanding of the underlying network, and is supporting multiple different vertical industry use case deployments and their particular requirements, respectively.
