Abstract
An application type of a bearer is classified by computing statistics vectors of bearer metrics and locating points on a label map corresponding to the statistics vectors to obtain application type information. The application type information is exported to a network node to control an operation of application. The bearer metrics include bearer identifier information and bearer condition information, where the bearer condition information includes channel condition information and cell congestion level information. The bearers are paired, such that uplink and downlink bearers for a same application are identified, so that paired bearers are classified together. The label map is produced using previously classified bearer information to calculate cluster centroids and cluster regions that define portions of the map for particular application types. The bearer is classified by determining which cluster region is closest to points on the label map that are associated with the statistics vectors for a particular bearer.
