Method for resource management in a heterogeneous wireless communication system and a heterogeneous wireless communication system

摘要

The invention describes a method for resource management in a heterogeneous wireless communication system, comprising a number of access networks, at least some of them having a resource management entity being responsible for executing flows between a number of user equipment and the respective access network, comprising the steps of:
- providing a flow descriptor comprising flow specific properties for each flow within the communication system;
- storing all of the provided flow descriptors within a flow descriptor pool;
- checking the flow descriptors in the flow descriptor pool whether their respective flow specific properties are able to be served by one of the access networks; and
- allocating resources by the access networks for a flow based on the evaluation of the flow descriptor pool.
