Patent number: 12369068Abstract: A boost is provided in an overloaded system by distinguishing nodes with a “bad” traffic history from nodes with a “good” traffic history. In so doing, a core network node is able to apply additional resources to the node(s) having a “good” history in the form of a boost factor. Based on a system capacity and a working point, e.g., a critical number of active nodes with a “bad” traffic history, the core network node may determine a throughput history limit belonging to the “bad” traffic history. Responsive to expected requirements for a newly active node (i.e., a node having a “good” traffic history), the core network node determines a boost factor for the newly active node, applies the boost factor to the average resources allocated to the nodes with the “bad” traffic history to determine boosted resources, and allocates the boosted resources to the newly active node.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2020Date of Patent: July 22, 2025Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Szilveszter Nádas, Balázs Varga, Miklos Telek, András Mészáros, Illés Antal Horváth
