Abstract
Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) converges telecommunications and cloud technology at the Radio Access Network (RAN). Taking the advantages of telecom cloud MEC allows rapid content processing at the very edge of the mobile network, delivering real-time services. Third party applications located in RAN may access virtualized network functions through RESTful Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). Radio Network Information APIs provide radio network related information to mobile edge applications and to mobile edge platforms. The paper proposes an extension of Radio Network Information APIs for access to information about terminal activity in a cell. The proposed APIs are described by information flows, data models and actual API definition. Aspects related to mobile edge application that use the proposed extension are discussed.
