4 Overview
The present document specifies the Radio Network Information API to support the requirements defined for Mobile
Edge Computing in ETSI GS MEC 002 [i.1].
Clause 5 introduces how Radio Network Information Service (RNIS) may be used by the mobile edge applications and
by the mobile edge platform. It describes the information flows used for RNI.
The information that can be exchanged over the RNI API is described in clause 6 which provides detailed description
on all information elements that are used for RNI.
Clause 7 describes the actual RNI API providing detailed information how information elements are mapped into a
RESTful API design.
5 Description of the service (informative)
5.1 RNIS service introduction
Mobile Edge Computing allows running the mobile edge applications at the edge of the network where the environment
is characterized by low latency, proximity, high bandwidth and exposure to location and up-to-date radio network
information. The information on current radio conditions are shared via the mobile edge platform over Radio Network
Information Service.
Radio Network Information Service (RNIS) is a service that provides radio network related information to mobile edge
applications and to mobile edge platforms. The Radio Network Information Service is available for authorized mobile
edge applications and is discovered over the Mp1 reference point [i.2]. The granularity of the radio network information
may be adjusted based on parameters such as information per cell, per User Equipment, per QCI class or it may be
requested over period of time. Typical information that may be provided is listed as follows:
• up-to-date radio network information regarding radio network conditions;
• measurement information related to the user plane based on 3GPP specifications;
• information about UEs connected to the radio node(s) associated with the mobile edge host, their UE context
and the related radio access bearers;
• changes on information related to UEs connected to the radio node(s) associated with the mobile edge host,
their UE context and the related radio access bearers.
The Radio Network Information may be used by the mobile edge applications and platform to optimize the existing
services and to provide new type of services that are based on up to date information on radio conditions. An example
of mobile edge application that uses radio network information to optimize current services is video throughput
guidance. In throughput guidance a radio analytics mobile edge application uses services of Mobile Edge Computing to
provide the backend video server with a near real-time indication on the throughput estimated to be available at the
radio downlink interface in the next time instant. The throughput guidance radio analytics application computes
throughput guidance based on the required radio network information it obtains from a mobile edge service running on
the mobile edge host ETSI GS MEC 002 [i.1].
ETSI
10 ETSI GS MEC 012 V1.1.1 (2017-07)
Radio Network Information may be also used by the mobile edge platform to optimize the mobility procedures required
to support service continuity.
Radio Network Information may cater for a wide range of use cases, where certain mobile edge application requests a
single piece of information using a simple request-response model while other mobile edge applications subscribe to
multiple different notifications regarding information changes. It is reasonable to assume that for simple queries the
RESTful methods are used. However there may be cases where the frequency of updates is so high and the amount of
information is so large that RESTful methods do not scale anymore. In addition, there may be aspects of one-to-many
communications, which cannot be efficiently addressed by RESTful interfaces. For those cases, the Radio Network
Information may be provided over the message broker of the mobile edge platform. The present document does not
specify the actual protocol for a message broker but rather addresses the interoperability aspects by defining stage 2
level definitions to different message types of RNI and by defining the message types in JSON and Protobuf format
together with the present document. A mobile edge application queries information on a message broker via the
transport information query procedure as defined in ETSI GS MEC 011 [i.6]. In addition, the transport information may
be pre-provisioned to the mobile edge application via configuration.
The following clauses describe how the service consumers interact with the Radio Network Information Service over
RNI API to obtain contextual information from the radio access network. The sequence diagrams that are relevant for
Radio Network Information are presented.
5.2 Sequence diagrams
5.2.1 Introduction
The service consumers communicate with the Radio Network Information Service over RNI API to get contextual
information from the radio access network. Both the mobile edge application and mobile edge platform may be service
consumers. Radio Network Information may be provided by both the mobile edge platform and the mobile edge
application.
The Radio Network Information API supports both queries and subscriptions (pub/sub mechanism) that are used over
the RESTful API or over the message broker of the mobile edge platform. A message broker is not specified in detail in
the present document, but the sequence diagrams and message types that are used over a message broker are defined.
For RESTful architectural style, the present document defines the HTTP protocol bindings.
5.2.2 Sending a request for RAB information
Figure 5.2.2-1 shows a scenario where the service consumer (e.g. a mobile edge application or a mobile edge platform)
sends a request to receive a cell level Radio Access Bearer information from the cells that are associated with the
requested mobile edge application instance. The response contains information on users in the cells such as the
identifiers of the cells, the identifiers associated to UEs in the cells and information on their E-RABs, consisting of the
QCI and QoS information.
Figure 5.2.2-1: Flow of service consumer requesting Radio Access Bearer information
A service consumer requesting Radio Access Bearer information, as illustrated in figure 5.2.2-1, consists of the
following steps:
1) Service consumer sends a GET request to the resource representing the RAB information. The request contains
a mobile edge application instance identifier as an input parameter.
ETSI
11 ETSI GS MEC 012 V1.1.1 (2017-07)
2) RNIS responds with "200 OK" with the message body containing the RabInfo.
5.2.3 Sending a request for PLMN information
Figure 5.2.3-1 shows a scenario where the service consumer (e.g. mobile edge application or mobile edge platform)
sends a query to receive cell level PLMN information related to specific mobile edge application instance. The response
contains information on cells that are associated with the requested instance of a mobile edge application.

Figure 5.2.3-1: Flow of service consumer requesting PLMN information
A service consumer requesting PLMN information, as illustrated in figure 5.2.3-1, consists of the following steps:
1) Service consumer sends a GET request to the resource representing the PLMN information. The request
contains a mobile edge application instance identifier as an input parameter.
2) RNIS responds with "200 OK" with the message body containing the PlmnInfo associated with the requested
mobile edge application instance.
5.2.4 Sending a request for S1 bearer information
With the S1 bearer information acquired from the RNIS, the service consumer (e.g. the mobile edge application or the
mobile edge platform) for example optimizes the relocation of mobile edge applications, or uses the acquired
information for managing the traffic rules for the related application instances. Figure 5.2.4-1 shows a scenario where
the mobile edge application or the mobile edge platform sends a query to receive the S1 bearer information.

Figure 5.2.4-1: Flow of service consumer requesting S1 bearer information
Requesting S1 bearer information, as illustrated in figure 5.2.4-1, consists of the following steps:
1) Service consumer sends a GET request to the resource representing the S1 bearer information.
2) RNIS responds with "200 OK" with the message body containing the S1 bearer information.
ETSI
12 ETSI GS MEC 012 V1.1.1 (2017-07)
5.2.5 REST based subscribe-notify model
5.2.5.1 Subscribing to RNI event notifications
To receive notifications on selected RNI events, the service consumer creates a subscription to certain specific RNI
event that is available at RNIS. Figure 5.2.5.1-1 shows a scenario where the service consumer uses REST based
procedures to create a subscription for RNI event notifications.

Figure 5.2.5.1-1: Flow of subscribing to the RNI event notifications
Subscribing to the RNI event notifications, as illustrated in figure 5.2.5.1-1, consists of the following steps.
When the service consumer wants to receive notifications about the RNI events, it creates a subscription to the RNI
event notifications:
1) The service consumer sends a POST request with the message body containing the {NotificationSubscription}
data structure to the resource representing the RNI subscription type of interest. The variable
{subscriptionType} is replaced with the subscription type specified for different RNI event subscriptions as
specified in clause 7.7.2. The variable {NotificationSubscription} is replaced with the data type specified for
different RNI event subscriptions as specified in clauses 6.3.2 through 6.3.9 , and it defines the subscribed
event, the filtering criteria and the address where the service consumer wishes to receive the RNI event
notifications.
2) RNIS sends "201 Created" response with the message body containing the data structure specific to that RNI
event subscription. The data structure contains the address of the resource created and the subscribed RNI
event type.
5.2.5.2 Receiving notification on expiry of RNI event subscription
RNIS may define an expiry time for the RNI event subscription. In case expiry time is used, the time will be included in
the {NotificationSubscription} data structure that is included in the response message to the subscription. Prior the
expiry, RNIS will also send a notification to the service consumer that owns the subscription.
Figure 5.2.5.2-1 shows a scenario where the service consumer receives a subscription expiry notification for the existing
subscription.
ETSI
13 ETSI GS MEC 012 V1.1.1 (2017-07)

Figure 5.2.5.2-1: Flow of RNIS sending a notification on expiry of the subscription
Sending a notification on expiry of the subscription, as illustrated in figure 5.2.5.2-1 consists of the following steps. If
RNIS has defined an expiry time for the subscription, RNIS will send a notification prior the expiry:
1) RNIS sends a POST request to the callback reference address included by the service consumer in the
subscription request. The POST request contains a data structure ExpiryNotification.
2) Service consumer sends a "204 No Content" response.
5.2.5.3 Updating subscription for RNI event notifications
Figure 5.2.5.3-1 shows a scenario where the service consumer needs to update an existing subscription for a RNI event
notification. The subscription update is triggered e.g. by the need to change the existing subscription, or due to the
expiry of the subscription.
Figure 5.2.5.3-1: Flow of service consumer updating subscription for RNI event notifications
Updating subscription for RNI event notifications, as illustrated in figure 5.2.5.3-1, consists of the following steps.
When the service consumer needs to modify an existing subscription for RNI event notifications, it can update the
corresponding subscription as follows:
1) Service consumer updates the subscription resource by sending a PUT request to the resource containing all
the subscriptions of the specific subscription type with the modified data structure specific to that RNI event
subscription.
2) RNIS returns "200 OK" with the message body containing the accepted data structure specific to that RNI
event subscription.
ETSI
14 ETSI GS MEC 012 V1.1.1 (2017-07)
5.2.5.4 Unsubscribing from RNI event notifications
When the service consumer does not want to receive notifications anymore after subscribing to RNI events, the service
consumer unsubscribes from the RNI event notifications. Figure 5.2.5.4-1 shows a scenario where the service consumer
uses REST based procedures to delete the subscription for RNI event notifications.

Figure 5.2.5.4-1: Flow of unsubscribing from the RNI event notifications
Unsubscribing from the RNI event notifications, as illustrated in figure 5.2.5.4-1, consists of the following steps:
When the service consumer does not want to receive the notifications anymore, it can unsubscribe from the RNI
notification events by deleting the subscription:
1) Service consumer sends a DELETE request to the resource representing the RNI event subscription that was
created.
2) RNIS sends "204 No content" response.
5.2.6 Receiving RNI event notifications about cell changes
Figure 5.2.6-1 presents the scenario where the RNIS sends RNI event notification on cell changes to the service
consumer. The notification contains the identifiers related to the UE and both the source and target cells.
ETSI
15 ETSI GS MEC 012 V1.1.1 (2017-07)

Figure 5.2.6-1: Flow of receiving RNI event notifications on cell changes
Receiving RNI event notifications on cell changes, as illustrated in figure 5.2.6-1, consists of the following steps:
1) RNIS sends a POST request with the message body containing the CellChangeNotification data structure to
the callback reference address included by the service consumer in the RNI cell change event subscription.
2) Service consumer sends a "204 No Content" response to the RNIS.
5.2.7 Receiving RNI event notifications about Radio Access Bearer
establishment
Figure 5.2.7-1 presents the scenario where the RNIS sends RNI event notification on RAB establishment to the service
consumer.
