See full text

A method and system for proactively reconfiguring communication to a user equipment device (UE) in anticipation the UE experiencing a coverage-throughput reduction when the UE is receiving streaming media. An example method includes (i) predicting, when the UE is receiving streaming media, that the UE is going to experience the coverage-throughput reduction and (ii) based at least in part on the predicting, proactively increasing a quality-of-service (QoS) level of a bearer through which the UE is receiving the streaming media, the proactively increasing occurring before the UE experiences the coverage-throughput reduction so that the QoS level is increased by when the UE experiences the coverage-throughput reduction.
