1. A method comprising:
collecting, at a gateway, a plurality of packets to be multiplexed by a multiplexer in an aggregated frame, measuring, at the gateway, a number of received packets within a predetermined time period, if the number of received packets reaches a predetermined value, sending, at the gateway, the aggregated frame including the collected packets, detecting, at the gateway, a congestion, measuring, at the gateway, a delay of a connection between the gateway and a base station, estimating, at the gateway, if congestion is detected, a delay of the connection between the gateway and the base station when the multiplexer is turned on, calculating, at the gateway, if congestion is detected, a bandwidth gain, comparing, at the gateway, the estimated delay with the measured delay or with a first predetermined threshold and to compare the bandwidth gain with a second predetermined threshold, and activating the multiplexer, if the estimated delay is lower than the measured delay or the first predetermined threshold and the bandwidth gain is above the second predetermined threshold. |
