Abstract

A network operator apparatus, a teleoperation application (TOApplication) apparatus, and an apparatus for a teleoperable vehicle are provided. The network operator apparatus creates a network slice for teleoperating the teleoperable vehicle along at least one route, receives a slice configuration request comprising QoS for the at least one route from the TOApplication apparatus, and configures the network slice to support the QoS. The TOApplication apparatus communicates towards the network operator apparatus, a request for creating the network slice, receives a teleoperation service request comprising a set of teleoperation configurations from the teleoperable vehicle, maps each teleoperation configuration to a respective QoS and sends the slice configuration request comprising the QoS to the network operator apparatus. The apparatus for the teleoperable vehicle sends the teleoperation service request to the TOApplication apparatus and controls the route to be followed by the teleoperable vehicle based on information from the TOApplication apparatus.
