Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A cellular communication system includes a method for managing uplink (UL) quality-of-service (QoS) in a two-hop wireless cellular communication system, including determining a count of UL QoS requests received from each user equipment (UE) and determining a served-to-requested ratio that is a ratio of a the number of bytes of UL data served to each UE by a mobile relay to the number bytes of UL data requested by each UE from the mobile relay. A UE subsystem of the mobile relay determines if any UEs are experiencing low UL QoS based on the number of UL QoS requests and the served-to-requested ratio. In response, a macro base station allocates network resources for improving the UL QoS provided to the set of UEs.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A cellular communication system, comprising: a macro base station that operates in accordance with a cellular protocol; and at least one mobile relay in communication with the macro base station and a plurality of user equipments (UEs), wherein the at least one mobile relay transmits uplink (UL) quality of service (QoS) status to the macro base station, the UL QoS status corresponding to a first set of UEs that receive UL QoS below a predetermined le…
