A computer-implemented method, performable by a scheduler manager, for steering traffic in a neutral host telecommunications network, the neutral host telecommunications network for supporting traffic from a plurality of mobile network operators, MNOs, with a plurality of access bands, the plurality of access bands comprising a shared access band for supporting traffic associated with the plurality of MNOs and one or more dedicated access bands for supporting traffic associated with respective MNOs, the method including: determining a traffic property associated with traffic of a first access band of the plurality of access bands; determining whether the traffic property satisfies a traffic steering condition; and in response to determining that the traffic property satisfies a traffic steering condition, steering the traffic of the first access band to a second access band of the plurality of access bands different from the first access band, wherein the scheduler manager is operable to schedule traffic of the first and second access band.
A computer-implemented method, performable by a scheduler manager, for steering traffic in a neutral host telecommunications network, the neutral host telecommunications network for supporting traffic from a plurality of mobile network operators, MNOs, with a plurality of access bands, the plurality of access bands comprising a shared access band for supporting traffic associated with the plurality of MNOs and one or more dedicated access bands for supporting traffic associated with respective MNOs, the method comprising:
The method of any preceding claim, wherein the traffic property comprises one or more of:
The method of any preceding claim, wherein the traffic property comprises a traffic demand associated with the traffic of the first access band, and wherein determining whether the traffic property satisfies the traffic steering condition comprises:
The method of any preceding claim, wherein steering the traffic of the first access band to the second access band comprises biasing traffic of the first access band to the second access band.
The method of any preceding claim, wherein steering the traffic of the first access band to the second access band is based on determining whether a traffic demand of the second access band is less than a bandwidth capacity of the second access band.
The method of any preceding claim, wherein the traffic property comprises a traffic priority associated with the traffic of the first access band, and wherein determining whether the traffic property satisfies the traffic steering condition comprises:
The method of any preceding claim, wherein the traffic property comprises a quality of service indicator associated with the traffic of the first access band, and wherein determining whether the traffic property satisfies the traffic steering condition comprises:
The method of any preceding claim, wherein the first access band is a dedicated access band associated with a first MNO.
The method of any preceding claim, wherein the second access band is a dedicated access band associated with a second MNO.
The method of any preceding claim, wherein steering the traffic of the first access band to the second access band comprises selecting user device connections to steer based on a determined user device quality of connection property.
