发明名称 Proximity Based Sub-Pooling of Network Devices in Mobile Wireless Networks
摘要 Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, determining message transfer delays based on transport layer control information associated with network traffic of a backhaul network coupled between a number of core network nodes of a wireless network and a wireless access node of the wireless network. The message transfer delays are representative of the network traffic between the core network nodes and the wireless access node. Weighting factors are assigned to the core network nodes based on the message transfer delays. The weighting factors are exposed to a scheduler that identifies a first group of core network nodes and a second group of core network nodes based on the weighting factors. The wireless access node preferentially establishes communications via the first group of core network nodes. The wireless access node establishes communications via the second group, responsive to an inability to establish communications via any core network nodes the first group. Other embodiments are disclosed.

主权项 1. A method, comprising: accessing, by a system comprising a processor, transport layer control information associated with network traffic of a backhaul network communicatively coupled between a plurality of core network nodes of a wireless communication network and a radio access node of the wireless communication network, wherein the radio access node is communicatively coupled to the plurality of core network nodes by way of the backhaul network; determining, by the system, a plurality of message transfer delays based on the transport layer control information, wherein the plurality of message transfer delays are representative of the network traffic between the plurality of core network nodes and the radio access node; assigning, by the system, a plurality of weighting factors to the plurality of core network nodes based on the plurality of message transfer delays; and providing, by the system, a scheduler with access to the plurality of weighting factors to enable the scheduler to identify a first group of core network nodes of the plurality of core network nodes and a second group of core network nodes of the plurality of core network nodes based on the plurality of weighting factors, wherein the providing of the access enables the radio access node to establish communications links with the first and second groups of core network nodes, selectively sending communications messages: via a first core network node of the first group of core network nodes responsive to a first determination that the first core network node is available to establish the communications, andvia a second core network node of the second group of core network nodes responsive to a second determination of an inability to establish the communications via any core network nodes of the first group of core network nodes or responsive to a second determination of excessive transport delays to any signaling nodes in the first group of signaling nodes.
