Abstract
An apparatus transmits a quality of experience (QoE) support message to an access point (AP) within an access network. The QoE support message queries whether the AP supports providing key performance indicators (KPI(s)) indicative of QoE provided by the access network. An indication of whether the AP supports providing the KPI(s) is received in response to the QoE support message. The KPI(s) are received when the AP supports providing the KPI(s). A determination is made whether to communicate with the AP based at least in part on the KPI(s). The apparatus performs communications in accordance with the determination.
