Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method and apparatus for managing load in a communication network are provided. At a processor of a relay device, a number of messages is determined that are one or more of currently queued for relay via a communication interface of the relay device and previously relayed within a given time period, the communication interface and the processor of the relay device for relaying the messages, via the communication interface, between a plurality of devices and a network infrastructure. At the processor, a rate at which the plurality of devices establishes communications with the network infrastructure is controlled, wherein there is an inverse relationship between the rate and the number of messages.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A relay device comprising: a communication interface, a memory storing a first threshold value, a second threshold value and a third threshold value, and a processor for relaying messages, via the communication interface, between a plurality of devices and a network infrastructure, the processor configured to: determine a number of the messages one or more of currently queued for relay via the communication interface and previously relayed within a given ti…
