US Patent 10321287 Method and device for exchanging signalling information

A method and arrangement for exchanging service and RAN information. In a communication network a service providing element is enabled to adapt delivery of a service based on RAN-related parameters. The communication network comprises a RAN (Radio Access Network) node, a core network node, and the service providing element. The RAN node obtains a RAN-related parameter and sends the RAN-related parameter to the service providing element via the core network node. The core network node receives the RAN-related parameter from the RAN node, re-structures the RAN-related parameter into a data structure readable by the service providing element, and sends the re-structured RAN-related parameter to the service providing element. The service providing element is configured to receive the RAN-related parameter, and adapt a service delivery parameter based on the RAN-related parameter.
