  • Method for data flow control in a mobile communications system
    Patent number: 8259579
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the flow of data between an RNC (R) and a base station (BS) of a UMTS mobile communications system with HSDPA capability via an lub interface (I2), where an HS-DSCH Frame Protocol mechanism is implemented in the lub interface (I2) to provide control and data services for the communication of HSDPA user data between the RNC and the base station, wherein a capacity overload control entity (COCU) monitors information about actual lub interface data transport flow (IDF), and when a determined lub interface (I2) transport capacity value is reached, the data transport flow is reduced in the lub interface (I2).
    Type: Grant

  • Method for data flow control in a mobile communications system
    Patent number: 7489654
    Abstract: A method for controlling the flow of data between an RNC and a base station of a UMTS mobile communications system with HSDPA capability via an Iub interface, where an HS-DSCH Frame Protocol mechanism is implemented in the Iub interface to provide control and data services for the communication of HSDPA user data between the RNC and the base station, wherein a capacity overload control entity monitors information about actual Iub interface data transport flow, and when a determined Iub interface transport capacity value is reached, the data transport flow is reduced in the Iub interface.

  • Data Flow Control Device and Method for Congestion Avoidance Into Lub and Lur Interfaces of a Radio Access Network of a Mobile Communication Network
    Publication number: 20090005053
    Abstract: A control device (D1, D2) is dedicated to a first or second network equipment (SR.DR.N1-N3) of a radio access network (RN) of a mobile network. A first type network equipment (N1-N3, DR) is arranged to allocate radio capacities for connections between user equipments (UE1-UE6) and a second type network equipment (SR) through an i?b or lur interface, and a second type network equipment (SR) is arranged to transmit data Hows through an iub or lur interface to at least one first type network equipment according to allocated radio capacities.
