Abstract

RAN events associated with IoT devices may be monitored and tracked. Profiles may be defined for different IoT devices. The profiles may specify resource limits for the IoT devices, including resource limits based on the RAN events. The IoT profiles may also define policy responses based on the occurrence of the RAN events. The policy responses may include charging rules, network access control rules, or other rules based on the resource usage of the IoT devices.
