Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of controlling call admission within a system comprising a plurality of media gateways ( 8, 9 ) interconnected by a packet switched backbone ( 5 ). The method comprises, at least one media gateway ( 8, 9 ), monitoring the level of congestion suffered by incoming packets to that gateway from each other media gateway over said backbone. Following receipt of a request for a media gateway ( 8, 9 ) to terminate a bearer extending over said backbone ( 5 ) from a peer media gateway, making a decision on the admissibility of that request based upon the previously monitored level of congestion suffered by incoming packets from that peer media gateway.
