Traffic hub system to provide roaming service in a wireless environment
First Claim
1. A traffic hub system comprising:
- a roaming data module to send and receive data for a roaming wireless network for a mobile device, the mobile device comprising a service utilizing a high-speed data network;
a home data module to send and receive data for a home wireless network for the mobile device, the home wireless network being a different network than the roaming wireless network, the home wireless network comprising a packet data network gateway;
a bandwidth negotiation module to negotiate a bandwidth for the mobile device with the roaming wireless network based on a home network policy, when the mobile device is in the roaming wireless network;
wherein the bandwidth negotiation module negotiates the bandwidth with the roaming wireless network by executing the steps comprising;
providing a bit rate request to a service delivery platform server for an allowed bit rate associated with the service based on the home network policy;
providing a create request to the home wireless network based on the allowed bit rate for the service;
providing a create response to the roaming wireless network based on the allowed bit rate for the service; and
determining whether the allowed bit rate for the service is updated.
