1. A method, comprising:
deploying, by network equipment comprising a processor, a minimum bit rate policy for application of the minimum bit rate policy by a radio access network node, wherein the minimum bit rate policy comprises:
a group of network conditions; and
minimum bit rates respectively assigned to network conditions of the group of network conditions, wherein the respective minimum bit rates are applied to user equipment served by the radio access network node in response to occurrences of the respective network conditions, wherein the applying the respective minimum bit rates to the user equipment in response to the occurrences of the network conditions comprises assigning respective radio network resources to the user equipment based on the respective minimum bit rates applied to the user equipment;
receiving, by the network equipment, performance data related to performance of the radio access network node during the application of the minimum bit rate policy by the radio access network node to the user equipment served by the radio access network node; and
modifying, by the network equipment, the minimum bit rate policy based on the performance data, resulting in a modified minimum bit rate policy, wherein the modified minimum bit rate policy comprises at least one modified respective minimum bit rate assigned to at least one of the network conditions of the group of network conditions, and wherein the at least one modified respective minimum bit rate is applied to the user equipment served by the radio access network node in response to the occurrences of the at the least one of the network conditions.
