Admission and eviction policies for mobile devices with non-telephonic functionality
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for implementing Quality of Service (QoS) in a wireless network, comprising:
- receiving, from a wireless device, a request to be admitted to the wireless network;
receiving source traffic information associated with the request, the source traffic information including an indication that the wireless device comprises a non-phone wireless device with non-urgent functions;
determining, in response to the request, a QoS metric in response to a control policy that evicts non-phone wireless devices with non-urgent functions from the wireless network, the QoS based, at least in part, on the source traffic information;
determining whether admitting the wireless device to the wireless network will cause the QoS metric to exceed a threshold; and
denying the wireless device access to the wireless network if admitting the wireless device will cause the QoS metric to exceed the threshold.

6. A wireless network system, comprising:
-
an antenna; one or more processors; and a non-transitory signal bearing medium having instructions stored therein, which, when executed, cause the one or more processors to; receive, from a wireless device, a request to be admitted to a wireless network; receive source traffic information associated with the request, the source traffic information including an indication that the wireless device comprises a non-phone wireless device with non-urgent functions; determine a QoS metric in response to the request and based, at least in part, on the source traffic information; determine whether admitting the wireless device to the wireless network will cause the QoS metric to exceed a threshold; and deny the wireless device access to the wireless network if admitting the wireless device will cause the QoS metric to exceed the threshold, wherein determining the QoS metric comprises determining the QoS metric in response to a control policy that evicts non-phone wireless devices with non-urgent functions from the wireless network. - View Dependent Claims (7)

8. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory signal bearing medium having stored therein instructions that, if executed, cause one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving, from a wireless device, a request to be admitted to a wireless network; receiving source traffic information associated with the request, the source traffic information including an indication that the wireless device comprises a non-phone wireless device with non-urgent functions; determining, in response to the request, a QoS metric in response to a control policy that evicts non-phone wireless devices with non-urgent functions from the wireless network, the QoS based, at least in part, on the source traffic information; determining whether admitting the wireless device to the wireless network will cause the QoS metric to exceed a threshold; and denying the wireless device access to the wireless network if admitting the wireless device will cause the QoS metric to exceed the threshold. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10)
