Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus to detect congestion of a network using a receiver of a communication system. The apparatus includes a transport layer information extraction unit configured to extract transmission control protocol frame information from information that is received from a lower layer. The apparatus also includes a congestion information filtering unit configured to identify and output a packet to determine congestion in the transmission control protocol frame information. The apparatus further includes a congestion detection unit configured to determine whether the network is congested using the packet to determine congestion. The apparatus includes a congestion information output unit configured to, upon detecting congestion in the network, deliver information indicating the detection of the congestion in the network to an operating system or other applications.
Abstract:
According to the present invention, a base station determines from a wireless communication system whether data to be transmitted is a response signal-required data that requires a response signal, estimates the amount of buffer of a user equipment (UE) at the point when the response signal is to be transmitted, predicts a required resource amount of the UE that is required for transmitting the response signal by using the buffer amount of the UE that is estimated, and schedules for allocating a resource to the UE on the basis of the required resource amount that is predicted.
Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for connecting to an Access Point (AP) based on beacon information in a wireless communication system. To this end, a wireless device predicts an interference condition from each of a plurality of APs based on information acquired by a received beacon, selects one of the plurality of APs, taking the predicted interference condition into account, and attempts connection to the selected AP.
Abstract:
A method for estimating an available bandwidth for each User Equipment (UE) in a mobile communication system comprises: a process of receiving estimated bandwidth information for at least one UE from an enhanced node B; a process of checking whether the estimated bandwidth information is received from a Medium Access Control (MAC) layer constituting said enhanced node B, or received through a Radio Link Control (RLC) layer or a Packet Data Control Protocol (PDCP) layer; a process of updating channel quality information using said estimated bandwidth information if it is checked that said estimated bandwidth information is received through the MAC layer; a process of updating an average value weighted with respect to the number of bytes of the bandwidth served by said enhanced node B using the estimated bandwidth information if it is checked that said estimated bandwidth information is received through the RLC or PDCP layer; and a process of calculating the bandwidth currently available by at least one UE using the updated channel quality information or the average value weighted with respect to the number of the bytes of the served bandwidth, and then transmitting the calculated bandwidth to a server.
