Abstract

A computer device receives user parameters for an Over-The-Air (OTA) update campaign. The parameters include a number of user equipment (UE) devices to receive an OTA update, a device type to receive the OTA update, a file size of an OTA update file, and a service level agreement parameter for the OTA update campaign. The computer device generates an estimate for conducting the OTA update campaign based on the user parameters and predicted network conditions, provides the estimate to a user, and receives a request for conducting the OTA update campaign using the user parameters. The request includes identifiers for the UE devices and the OTA update file. The computer device generates, based on the request, a schedule to perform the OTA update on the UE devices in accordance with the service level agreement parameter, and instructs the UE devices to perform the OTA update based on the schedule.
