A base station subsystem and architecture that addresses the increasing traffic capacity loading terrestrial links in Internet Protocol networks.
A base station subsystem and architecture that addresses the increasing traffic capacity loading terrestrial links in Internet Protocol networks.
A base station subsystem (BSS) and method is provided that handles an increase in traffic volume which temporarily overloads at least one terrestrial link in an IP network by gracefully downgrading the transmission rate of one or more calls. More specifically, the BSS includes a base station transmitter (BTS), an IP gateway and an IP network which passes at least one packet based call on a terrestrial link between the BTS and the IP gateway. The BTS and IP gateway each include an end-point having a buffer for measuring a delay in passing the at least one packet based call through the terrestrial link of the IP network and for downgrading a service when the delay as measured by one of the buffers exceeds a predetermined value.
