  • System and method for dynamically switching transmission of data from cellular to unidirectional point-to-multipoint network
    Patent number: 11259209
    Abstract: A system and method for dynamically switching transmission of selected data from cellular core network to unidirectional point-to-multipoint downlink network or from unidirectional point-to-multipoint downlink network to cellular core network based on traffic flow analysis is provided. The system includes a cellular packet core 206, a broadcast offload packet core (BO-PC) 302, and a load manager 202. The cellular packet core 206 controls a cellular radio access network (RAN) 412 for providing bidirectional connectivity to a converged user equipment (UE) (204) to transmit or receive selected data through the cellular packet core 206 and the RAN 412. The BO-PC 302 controls a broadcast radio access network (RAN). The broadcast radio access network (RAN) includes at least one Broadcast Radio Head (BRH) 322 for providing unidirectional downlink path to the converged user equipment (UE) 204 to receive selected data through the at least one Broadcast Radio Heads (BRH) 322.
