Abstract
A system and method for traffic management in a radio system monitors at least one cell load parameter of non-real-time users in a radio cell. A cell reselection process is triggered in the radio cell on the basis of a cell load parameter exceeding a pre-set cell load threshold, based on at least one cell load parameter. The non-real-time users perform cell reselection and triggering the selected non-real-time users to perform cell reselection.
Claims24
A method for traffic management in a radio system, the method comprising:
- monitoring at least one cell load parameter of non-real-time users in a radio cell;
- triggering a cell reselection process in the radio cell on the basis of a cell load parameter exceeding a pre-set cell load threshold;
- selecting, based on at least one cell load parameter, the non-real-time users to perform cell reselection;
- and
- triggering the selected non-real-time users to perform cell reselection.
A radio system comprising:
- a base station configured to provide a radio cell for radio transmission and reception to user equipment, wherein
- the base station comprises:
- monitor unit configured to monitor at least one cell load parameter of non-real-time users in a radio cell;
- a triggering unit configured to trigger a cell reselection process in the radio cell on the basis of a cell load parameter exceeding a pre-set cell load threshold,
- selecting unit configured to select, based on at least one cell load parameter, the non-real-time users to perform cell reselection;
- and
- wherein the triggering unit is further configured to trigger the selected non-real-time users to perform cell reselection.
A controller of a radio system, the controller comprising:
- monitoring unit configured to monitor at least one cell load parameter of non-real-time users in a radio cell;
- a triggering unit configured to trigger a cell reselection process in the radio cell on the basis of a cell load parameter exceeding a pre-set cell load threshold;
- selecting unit configured to select, based on at least one non-real-time cell load parameter, the non-real-time users to perform cell reselection;
- and
- wherein the triggering unit is further configured to trigger the selected non-real-time users to perform cell reselection,
- wherein the controller is operable in a radio system comprising a base station, and the base station is configured to provide a radio cell for radio transmission and reception to user equipment.
A radio network controller of a radio system, the radio network controller comprising:
- monitoring means for monitoring at least one cell load parameter of non-real-time users in a radio cell;
- first triggering means for triggering a cell reselection process in the radio cell on the basis of a cell load parameter exceeding a pre-set cell load threshold;
- selecting means for selecting, based on at least one non-real-time cell load parameter, the non-real-time users to perform cell reselection;
- and
- second triggering means for triggering the selected non-real-time users to perform cell reselection,
- wherein the radio network controller is operable in a radio system comprising a base station and the base station provides a radio cell for radio transmission and reception to user equipment.
A base station of a radio system, comprising:
- monitoring means for monitoring at least one cell load parameter of non-real-time users in a radio cell;
- first triggering means for triggering a cell reselection process in the radio cell on the basis of a cell load parameter exceeding a pre-set cell load threshold;
- selecting means for selecting, based on at least one non-real-time cell load parameter, the non-real-time users to perform cell reselection;
- and
- second triggering means for triggering the selected non-real-time users to perform cell reselection.
