Abstract
Apparatus, and an associated method, for generating a TVMAR (traffic volume measurement and reporting) report, or other appropriate report, to facilitate packet scheduling in a packet-based communication system. A signal is generated at a network part of a radio communication system indicative of parameters that the mobile station is to include in the TVMAR report, subsequently to be generated by the mobile station. The signal is generated by a signal generator and sent to the mobile station to be detected thereat by a detector. The communication indicia is measured by a measurer and the measured values of the selected parameters are formed into a TVMAR report and returned to the network part.
