Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
According to the teachings presented herein, a base station implements active queue management (AQM) for uplink transmissions from user equipment (UE), such as a mobile terminal. The base station, e.g., an eNodeB in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network, uses buffer status reports, for example, to estimate packet delays for packets in the UE's uplink transmit buffer. In one embodiment, a (base station) method of AQM for the uplink includes estimating at least one of a transmit buffer size and a transmit buffer queuing delay for a UE, and selectively dropping or congestion-marking packets received at the base station from the UE. The selective dropping or marking is based on the estimated transmit buffer size and/or the estimated transmit buffer queuing delay.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method implemented by a base station for active queue management of a transmit buffer in a user equipment transmitting packets to the base station, comprising: estimating, by the base station, a size of the transmit buffer by calculating the amount of data not yet served from the transmit buffer of the user equipment, based on buffer status reports or buffer status indicators received from the user equipment, and an amount of served or scheduled data; es…
