Apparatus and method for deciding an offload list for a heavily loaded base station

摘要

An apparatus and method for deciding an offload list for a heavily loaded base station are provided. The heavily loaded base station serves a plurality of user equipments. A part of the user equipments are candidate user equipments, wherein a connection quality parameter of each of the candidate user equipments is smaller than a threshold. Each of the candidate user equipments has an offload utility value and a service level agreement degree. The apparatus selects one of the candidate user equipments as a selected user equipment according to the offload utility values. The apparatus decides to add an identity of the selected user equipment into the offload list according to at least the service level agreement degree of the selected user equipment and a load of a target base station of the selected user equipment.

主权项

1. An apparatus for deciding an offload list for a heavily loaded base station, comprising:
a transceiving interface, being connected to the heavily loaded base station, the heavily loaded base station serving a plurality of user equipments (UEs), a part of the UEs being a plurality of candidate UEs, a connection quality parameter of each of the candidate UEs being smaller than a first threshold, and each of the candidate UEs having an offload utility value and a service level agreement (SLA) value; and a processing unit, being electrically connected to the transceiving interface, being configured to select one of the candidate UEs as a selected UE according to the offload utility values, and decide to add an identity of the selected UE into the offload list according to at least the service level agreement value of the selected UE and a load of a target base station of the selected UE.
