VERKEHRSÜBERWACHUNG VON PAKETVERMITTELTEN FUNKKANÄLEN

摘要

A method and system for packet switched radio channel (PRCH) traffic supervision is disclosed. A PRCH supervision function receives a packet report for each data packet transmitted on the PRCH. The PRCH supervision function calculates an estimate of average data traffic for each packet call on the PRCH, an estimate of average data traffic on the PRCH and an estimate of the average packet delay on the PRCH. The calculations may be done for the uplink and downlink of the PRCH separately, or, as values for the combined uplink and downlink of the PRCH. The results of the calculations may then be used to determine if a packet call should be admitted to the PRCH or if a packet call should be expelled from the PRCH.
