Systems and methods for clustering emergency services routing proxies are provided. The described features allow a group of ESRPs running as individual servers or a group of virtual servers, to be referenced using a single URI. In one implementation, an emergency services routing proxy device includes an emergency services routing proxy node configured to route a call to a downstream entity, the call received from an upstream entity. The device further includes a cluster manager configured to receive registration information from the emergency services routing proxy node, the registration information including a routing service identifier. The cluster manager may be further configured to identify the emergency services routing proxy node for call routing based on a comparison of an identifier included in the call with the routing service identifier.

A system and method for client network congestion analysis and management is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the method includes: collecting real-time network data; executing calculations on the real-time network data to compute performance metrics; detecting peak usage time; and detecting one or more congestion incidents, wherein a congestion incident comprises a persistence of one or more metrics over a time window that comprises detecting a proportion of metric values crossing a threshold that exceeds a defined percentage amount, detecting a time-ordered stretch of metric values that exceeds a defined threshold, or combinations thereof.

A service platform for a content delivery network indicates a transmission rate cap to be imposed when streaming data to a data requesting device over an access network. Means are provided for receiving a service request for delivery of data from a requesting device as the result of which the requested data is delivered as a prioritised traffic stream over an access link to the requesting device. The service platform processes the service request to determine one or more performance characteristics of said access link and uses this to determine the maximum transmission rate for the requested data to be streamed at over the access link during its delivery to the requesting device. This information is included in a source address for the requested data which the service platform generates, typically as a URL. The maximum transmission rate set is provided as a prefix to the URL (or in some other meta-data format) to the requesting device, and the content delivery platform is configured to ensure that requests for media assets which are received at the logical or virtual ports associated with the URL pre-fixes are responded to by transmissions limited to the maximum bandwidth cap indicated by the URL pre-fix.

To address a service interruption while a procedure to change to a dynamic frequency selection (DFS) wireless frequency channel is being performed, a service interruption message is displayed to the user or some other action is taken while a wireless access point changes to the DFS wireless frequency channel. Another action to address the service interruption may be the media content client playing buffered media content stored in a buffer on the media content client to avoid an appearance to the user of an interruption in service. Also, in some embodiments, buffered video is received from the receiving device after the interruption in service has ended so that the media content client may resume playing, and the user may continue to view, the video program from the point where the user left off when the DFS change process and service interruption had started.

Various methods are provided for providing dynamic and adaptive QoS and QoE management of U-Plane traffic while implementing user and application specific differentiation and maximizing system resource utilization by, for example, providing utilizing a system comprised of a policy server and one or more enforcement points. In one example system, the policy server may be a logical entity configured for storing a plurality of QoS/QoE policies, each of the plurality of policies identifying at least one of a user, service vertical, application, or context, and associated QoE targets. The policy server may be further configured to provide one or more of the plurality of QoS/QoE policies to the one or more enforcement points. In some embodiments, the QoS/QoE policies may be configured to provide QoE targets, for example, at a high abstraction level and/or at an application session level.

Methods, computer-readable media, and systems for up hole transmission of well data based on bandwidth are described. A down hole type data transmission tool includes an input device to receive data from a well tool. The tool includes a processor to determine that sufficient bandwidth is unavailable to transmit all of the received data up hole to a data receiving device in real time, and, responsively, divide the data into a portion to be transmitted up hole in real time and a remainder to be transmitted later. The remainder can be buffered in a memory and transmitted at a later time, for example, when sufficient bandwidth is available.

A method for transmitting a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) by a wireless LAN Access Point (AP) in a communication system includes when a VoIP frame is input from a terminal, determining whether a buffer for eliminating a jitter generated in a wireless network is used, and storing the VoIP frame in a queue, determining whether the buffer is used, and when the buffer is used, determining a time interval for transmitting the VoIP frame stored in the queue and a service start time, and transmitting the VoIP frame stored in the queue in a wired fashion based on the determined time interval and service start time.

This disclosure relates to techniques for handling voice and data under uplink limited conditions in a wireless communication system. A wireless device and a base station may establish a wireless communication link. Transmission time interval bundling (TTI-B) may be enabled for uplink communications between the wireless device and the base station. It may be determined that the wireless device is experiencing uplink limited conditions. One or more rules prioritizing a first type of data over a second type of data for uplink communications may be enabled based on TTI-B being enabled and the wireless device experiencing uplink limited conditions.

A base station, system, method, and computer program product are disclosed for transmitting data packets received by the base station. According to one aspect, the base station includes a first buffer configured to store data packets received by the base station, a second buffer configured to store data packets that are scheduled for transmission by the base station, and a computer processor, operatively coupled to the first buffer and the second buffer. The computer processor is configured to inspect a data packet to determine an application type of the data packet, determine a delay tolerance associated with the data packet based on the determined application type, determine a channel condition of a communication session with the user device, move the data packet from the first buffer to the second buffer based on the determined delay tolerance and the determined channel condition, and transmit data packets stored in the second buffer.

Apparatuses, systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for adaptive bandwidth throttling. A monitor module determines a network bandwidth and/or a historical bandwidth for a data transfer between a storage source and a storage target. A target module adjusts a target bandwidth for a data transfer using a weighting factor. A target bandwidth may be based on at least one of a network bandwidth and a historical bandwidth. A weighting factor for a target bandwidth may be based on a priority for a data transfer. A transfer module transfers at least a block of data of a data transfer from a storage source to a storage target in a manner configured to satisfy a target bandwidth. A delay before transferring a block and/or a block size for the block may be selected based on a target bandwidth.
