Abstract
Traffic flow control is facilitated in a multi-radio access technology wireless network infrastructure. A qualification threshold value can be determined for a slave node device, as a function of the qualification threshold value, a data volume threshold value can be determined for the slave node device, and, as a function of the data volume threshold value, transmission of data to a user equipment device can be facilitated by the slave node device.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
- receiving feedback data from a grouping of slave node devices;
- and
- in response to the receiving the feedback data, determining, from the grouping of slave node devices, a slave node device that facilitates transmission of user plane data to a user equipment device, wherein the determining of the slave node device is based on the feedback data and an exclusionary threshold value determined for each slave node device comprising the grouping of slave node devices.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a device comprising a processor, feedback data from a grouping of slave node devices;
- and
- selecting, by the device from the grouping of slave node devices, a slave node device that facilitates transmission of user plane data to a user equipment device, wherein selection of the slave node device is based on the feedback data and an exclusionary threshold value determined for each slave node device comprising the grouping of slave node devices.
A machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
- receiving feedback data from a grouping of slave node devices;
- and
- based on respective exclusionary threshold values determined for respective slave node devices of the grouping of slave node devices and the feedback data, determining, from the grouping of slave node devices, a slave node device that facilitates transmission of user plane data to a user equipment device.
