  • Patent number: 8422506
    Abstract: A mobile communication device for load balancing management is provided. In the mobile communication device, a wireless module receives data communication services via a first service node and receives a plurality of system information messages from the first service node and a plurality of second service nodes, wherein each of the system information messages has a forward-link quality threshold corresponding to a respective service node. Also, a controller determines a traffic type of the data communication services and a signal indicator of the first service node, and determines whether the signal indicator is less than the forward-link quality threshold corresponding to the first service node. In response to that the signal indicator is less than the forward-link quality threshold corresponding to the first service node, the controller switches the data communication services from the first service node to one of the second service nodes according to the traffic type.
