Abstract: A system for offloading traffic from a cellular network to a broadcast network is provided. The offloading mechanism caters to both unicast and broadcast traffic. The system includes a converged cellular core network, World Wide Web, a CDN, a Broadcast Offload Packet Core (BO-PC), a cellular base station, a Broadcast Radio Head, and a converged UE. The converged cellular core network includes an enhanced packet core, a policy rules engine and a packet inspection and steering unit. The BO-PC includes a Broadcast Proxy, a subscriber database, a Broadcast Offload Service Center, a Broadcast Offload Gateway and an analytics engine.

Abstract: There is provided a device and method for managing wireless communication over a transmission channel within a network. A set of received signal strength values is obtained for signals transmitted over the transmission channel within the network. A lowest received signal strength value of the set of received signal strength values is determined. A maximum limit by which a transmission power for the transmission channel may be reduced from a predetermined transmission power is determined, the maximum limit being based on the lowest received signal strength value.
