PROXY SERVER ASSOCIATED WITH A MOBILE CARRIER FOR ENHANCING MOBILE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT IN A MOBILE NETWORK
First Claim
1. A method for mobile traffic management on a mobile carrier or mobile operator, comprising:
- delaying, at a proxy server, a batch of transactions initiated by an application server directed towards a mobile device,wherein the application server is associated with a mobile application on the mobile device; and
detecting arrival of a trigger that includes a message of high priority, time critical, or an urgent transaction directed to the mobile device and initiated by the application server;
transferring, at the proxy server, the batch of the transactions that were delayed and the message associated with the trigger to the mobile device in response to detecting the trigger;
wherein the proxy server is associated with or residing on the mobile carrier or the mobile operator.

Abstract
A proxy server or component associated with or residing on a mobile carrier or mobile operator side for enhancing mobile traffic management in a mobile network and system and methods therefor are disclosed. The proxy server, in some embodiments, can delay, clump, block or otherwise manage incoming traffic initiated by one or more application servers and directed to one or more mobile applications associated with the one or more applications servers installed on a mobile device. The proxy server can manage the incoming traffic based on traffic category, time criticality, priority and/or other criteria. The proxy server can further transfer the traffic that was delayed to the mobile device in response to a trigger such as promotion of a radio state on the mobile device or a start of an interval for transferring incoming to the mobile device and outgoing traffic from the mobile device.
