Network-Based Intelligent Radio Access Control

摘要

Concepts and technologies are described herein for a network-based radio access control. According to one aspect disclosed herein, a radio access technology selection system enables an intelligent multi-radio access control that can select one or more radio access technologies that is best-suited for one or more target mobile devices based upon network conditions, policies, user profiles, and/or other information. The radio access technology selection system also informs the target mobile device(s) of one or more networks that utilize the selected radio access technology. In this manner, the radio access technology selection system can steer traffic to various networks operating in accordance with different radio access technologies to improve user experience, especially in network traffic congested areas, and to efficiently leverage network resources for mobile telecommunications and WI-FI networks.

主权项

1. A radio access technology selection system comprising:
a processor; and a memory in communication with the processor, the memory comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising
receiving a policy,receiving network load information for a plurality of radio access networks that a target mobile device is capable of connecting to, the plurality of radio access networks operating in accordance with a plurality of radio access technologies,selecting a radio access network of the plurality of radio access networks based upon the policy and the network load information,generating a network selection directed to the target mobile device, the network selection instructing the target mobile device to connect to the radio access network, andsending the network selection to the target mobile device.
