FEEDBACK-BASED PACKET CONTROL SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for dynamically controlling per-session throughput and application priority, said method under the control of one or more computer systems configured with executable instructions and comprising:
- receiving, at a mobile virtual network operator, a request to initiate a data-based application, wherein the request is received from a mobile device that is associated with a data plan that is managed by the mobile virtual network operator, and wherein the data-based application is associated with a category of data;
evaluating the request at a feedback-based packet control system of the mobile virtual network operator, wherein the feedback-based packet control system utilizes a speed monitoring module and business rule engine in evaluating the request;
allocating data to the data-based application request, wherein the allocation of data is based on at least one of a data plan and a category of data; and
providing the data-based application request to a server.

Abstract
Methods and systems for dynamically controlling per-session throughput and application priority are provided. Said method is under the control of one or more computer systems configured with executable instructions. The method comprises receiving, at a mobile virtual network operator, a request to initiate a data-based application. The request is received from a mobile device that is associated with a data plan that is managed by the mobile virtual network operator. The data-based application is associated with a category of data. The method also comprises evaluating the request at a feedback-based packet control system of the mobile virtual network operator utilizing a speed monitoring module and business rule engine in evaluating the request. The method further comprises allocating data to the data-based application request. The allocation of data is based on a data plan and and/or category of data. Additionally, the method comprises providing the data-based application request to a server.

11. A computer-implemented method for dynamically controlling per-session throughput and application priority, said method under the control of one or more computer systems configured with executable instructions and said method comprising:
-
receiving a predetermined amount of bandwidth at a mobile virtual network operator; monitoring real-time performance of data traffic across the mobile virtual network operator, wherein monitoring real-time performance of data traffic includes assessing actual speed performance, packet loss, and packet retransmission rate; assessing servomechanism feedback of data traffic across the mobile virtual network operator; based on the monitored real-time performance and the assessed servomechanism feedback, determining a packet flow control configuration for one or more sessions that are managed by the mobile virtual network operator; and applying the packet flow control configuration to the one or more sessions that are managed by the mobile virtual network operator. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
