METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRAFFIC OFFLOADING BASED ON CONGESTION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method that can increase network performance and user perceived service quality by allocating more radio resources to user data through a non-3GPP Access Network (AN) in a wireless communication system such as LTE is provided. Use of a 3GPP AN or a non-3GPP AN may be set in a user equipment or set according to a policy received from a policy server such as ANDSF. A scheme for dynamically updating and applying a policy according to user and AN conditions is provided. The scheme provides two approaches for determining whether to apply a policy according to user and the AN conditions.
