OVERLAOD AVOIDANCE WITH HOME NODE B GATEWAY (HENB GW) IN LTE

摘要

Systems and methods for handling signaling connection establishment in systems which include home gateways (502, 800) are described. A request is received, by a home gateway (502, 800), to establish a signaling connection, which request includes a reason for requesting establishment of that signaling connection. The home gateway (502, 800) determines whether to establish the signaling connection based upon that reason plus a load status of at least one of the home gateway (502, 800) itself and a core network node (208).
