摘要:
For a mobile radio connection having at least two uplink flows, a determination is made whether one of the uplink flows from a non-serving cell has a better radio link quality than another of the uplink flows from a serving cell. A congestion condition in the radio access transport network is monitored for those uplink flows. If congestion in the radio access transport network for the non-serving cell uplink flow is detected when that uplink flow is associated with the better radio link quality, then a message is generated for transmission to the mobile radio terminal to reduce a rate at which the mobile radio terminal transmits data for the connection to the radio access transport network rather than the non-serving cell discarding uplink data packets.

A first device (124) in a High Speed Downlink Packet Access environment (100) may generate a High Speed Downlink Shared Channel data frame (700, 730, 735, 750) that includes a group of packet data units, where a first packet data unit of the group of packet data units is of a different length than a second packet data unit of the group of packet data units. The first device (124) may further transfer the High Speed Downlink Shared Channel data frame (700, 730, 735, 750) to a second device (122).
摘要:
A method of controlling the rate of traffic flow through an Iub interface of a Radio Network Controller is described. The method includes obtaining a licensed rate, which defines the maximum throughput permitted through the Iub interface, at the Radio Network Controller. The rate of traffic flow through the Iub interface and all Iu interfaces of the Radio Network Controller is measured, and the extent to which packet switched traffic flow through the Iub interface exceeds the licensed rate identified. If the packet switched traffic flow through the Iub interface exceeds the licensed rate, packets are dropped from traffic flow through the Iub interface to reduce the traffic flow to the licensed rate.

The invention discloses a method for detecting and controlling traffic congestion in a wireless telecommunications system (100, 300, 400) comprising at least a first node (130, 330, 430) such as a Radio Base Station, and at least one second node (110, 310, 410) such as a Radio Network Controller, the system also comprising a Transport Network, TN (120, 320, 420), for conveying traffic between said first and second nodes, in which system (100, 300, 400) the traffic can comprise one or more flow. The method comprises the use of one flow control function (315, 415) per each of said flows, said one flow control function (315, 415) comprising a congestion detection and control function. In addition, the congestion detection function acts to reduce the traffic on said flow before the system becomes congested.

In a multi flow HSDPA system comprising a RNC (402) and a plurality of NodeB's (404, 406), the present disclosure includes (re-) use of original active queue management, AQM, based congestion control, ABCC for a primary link (421). For every detected congestion, an end-user IP packet is destroyed. ABCC is not used for the secondary link (422), which means that application level TCP will not be informed about congestion on the secondary link (422). The radio link control, RLC, protocol data units, PDU, (432) are distributed among links based on the congestion status of the links. If secondary link (422) is congested then more packets will be transmitted on the primary link (421). This makes it possible to use TCP compatible congestion control for multi flow HSDPA, without the drawback that would result from TCP reacting unnecessarily on flow bitrate decrease.
摘要:
A method of prioritising packets for delivery over a transport network interconnecting nodes of a mobile network, where a guaranteed minimum information rate over the transport network is specified for the mobile network. The method comprises, for each bearer to be injected into the transport network from the mobile network, specifying a bearer information rate and marking packets up to that rate as conformant with the bearer information rate and marking packets exceeding that rate as non-conformant with the bearer information rate. A plurality of traffic type streams from the mobile network are converged, each traffic type stream comprising a plurality of bearers. Packets of the converged traffic type streams are inspected to identify packets marked as conformant and non-conformant, and re-marking non-conformant packets, or at least a fraction of non-conformant packets, as conformant if the converged rate of conformant packets is less than said minimum information rate. The transport network prioritises the delivery of packets marked as conformant over those packets marked as non-conformant.
