摘要:
A mechanism is provided to resolve the Iub transport network congestion efficiently for HSDPA by dynamic adjustment of the transmit window of the RLC. The RLC protocol is extended with congestion control functionality. The Iub TN and Uu congestion detection method in the Node-B signals the congestion to the RNC, and this congestion indication is used by RLC to react on the congestion situation. In the RNC, the transmission window of the RLC is adjusted to control the flow rate. When congestion is detected, the RLC transmission window size is decreased. When there is no congestion, then the RLC transmission window size is increased automatically. Different types of congestion are distinguished and are handled in different ways. Alternatively, congestion control is achieved without any modification in the RLC layer from the existing standard. Here, RLC STATUS PDUs are used to change the RLC transmission window size.

A method for traffic control in a cellular telephony system (100), each cell comprising at least one node, an RBS (130), for the control of traffic to and from users (150) in the cell. The traffic to each UE (150) can comprise at least one flow, and the method is intended for control of the flows in the traffic to UEs (150) in the system (100). and comprises one control function for each controlled flow to each of said UEs (150). Said control function comprises a congestion avoidance function (240, 440) which detects the presence or absence of congestion in a flow to an UE (150), and which, upon congestion or low utilization of the network reduces the bit rate to the UE (150) in a non-linear fashion, and which, in the absence of congestion, linearly increases the bit rate of the traffic to the UE (150).

A method for detecting congestion in a transport network is provided. The congestion detection utilizes flow control including relative bitrate. The method comprises counting the number of detected frame loss events for a flow. The method further comprises determining if the number of detected frame losses is greater than or equal to a corresponding threshold, wherein the threshold used is an individual threshold for the flow set taking into account relative bitrate weights of the flow, and detecting transport network congestion for the flow when the number of detected frame losses is greater than or equal to the corresponding threshold.

The invention discloses a method (200, 300, 400) for traffic control in a cellular telephony system (100) comprising a number of cells, each cell comprising at least one Radio Base Station, RBS, (170). The system (100) comprises at least one Radio Network Controller, RNC, (110 130 150), for the control of a number of Radio Base stations. The traffic between an RBS and an RNC comprises a number of flows. The invention is intended for the control of flows from the Radio Base Stations to their RNC. The method uses one control function for each flow from each of said Radio Base Stations, and also comprises a congestion detection function (220) which detects the presence or absence of congestion in the traffic from an RBS to an RNC, and which, upon detection of congestion reduces the bit rate of the congested traffic, and in the absence of congestion, increases the bit rate of the previously congested traffic.

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:
The present invention is related to a method, base station (RBS) and computer program for quickly recovering from a detected congestion over the air interface. First the current bitrate at the which the air interface congestion has been detected is stored as a new reference bitrate. Thereafter, the base station (RBS) requests a reduction of the bitrate associated with the air interface. When the congestion condition has subsided the base station (RBS) requests a boost of the bitrate associated with the air interface up to the stored new reference bitrate. When finally the new reference bitrate has been reached, the base station (RBS) requests a linear increase of the bitrate associated with the air interface.
摘要:
A network includes a first node and a second node and data frames are transmitted from the first node to the second node. Each of the data frames carry information belonging to one of a plurality of data flows. In a flow control unit (125) there is an estimate or measure determining unit (1201) for determining for each of the data flows, at the ends of first time periods having a predetermined first length, an estimate of or a measure representing the total number of received data frames that have been faulty during the first time period. A reference calculating unit (1101) is connected to the estimate or measure determining unit for calculating, based on the determined estimate or measure, a bandwidth capacity reference value determining the currently maximum allowable bandwidth for transmission from the data transmitting node to the data receiving node. The first node can be a radio network controller and the second node a radio base station, the data frames forwarded in an HS-DSCH over an Iub interface.
