Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2021111213A1] A network node (500) of a wireless communication network (10) receives (205) load control information identifying a network slice and indicating a target load for the network slice. The network node (500) triggers (210) data collection at a user plane function (UPF) (35) that is in the identified network slice and that has a load above the target load. The network node (500) determines (215), based on a result of the data collection received from the UPF (35), a policy that achieves the target load at the UPF (35), and signals (220) a Policy Control Function (PCF) (50) in the identified network slice to control the load of the UPF (35) in accordance with the policy.
