Abstract
The disclosure is directed to delaying a release of a quality of service (QoS) bearer. An aspect receives a session setup request from a user for a media session requiring a QoS bearer, triggers a setup of the QoS bearer for the media session, receives a session termination request from the user for the media session, and in response to receiving the session termination request, determines whether or not to delay releasing the QoS bearer based on a history of QoS bearer utilization of the user and a determination of whether or not a number of currently established QoS bearers is less than a threshold.
Claims28
A method of delaying a release of a quality of service (QoS) bearer, comprising:
- receiving a session setup request from a user for a media session requiring a QoS bearer;
- triggering a setup of the QoS bearer for the media session;
- receiving a session termination request from the user for the media session;
- and
- in response to receiving the session termination request, determining whether or not to delay releasing the QoS bearer based on a history of QoS bearer utilization of the user and a determination of whether or not a number of currently established QoS bearers is less than a threshold.
An apparatus for delaying a release of a quality of service (QoS) bearer, comprising:
- logic configured to receive a session setup request from a user for a media session requiring a QoS bearer;
- logic configured to trigger a setup of the QoS bearer for the media session;
- logic configured to receive a session termination request from the user for the media session;
- and
- logic configured to determine, in response to receiving the session termination request, whether or not to delay releasing the QoS bearer based on a history of QoS bearer utilization of the user and a determination of whether or not a number of currently established QoS bearers is less than a threshold.
An apparatus for delaying a release of a quality of service (QoS) bearer, comprising:
- means for receiving a session setup request from a user for a media session requiring a QoS bearer;
- means for triggering a setup of the QoS bearer for the media session;
- means for receiving a session termination request from the user for the media session;
- and
- means for determining, in response to receiving the session termination request, whether or not to delay releasing the QoS bearer based on a history of QoS bearer utilization of the user and a determination of whether or not a number of currently established QoS bearers is less than a threshold.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium for delaying a release of a quality of service (QoS) bearer, comprising:
- at least one instruction to receive a session setup request from a user for a media session requiring a QoS bearer;
- at least one instruction to trigger a setup of the QoS bearer for the media session;
- at least one instruction to receive a session termination request from the user for the media session;
- and
- at least one instruction to determine, in response to receiving the session termination request, whether or not to delay releasing the QoS bearer based on a history of QoS bearer utilization of the user and a determination of whether or not a number of currently established QoS bearers is less than a threshold.
