1. An IP endpoint comprising:
- a processor;
a memory; and
an application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor;
receives from a mobile communications device a mobile device report indicating congestion experienced by data transmitted by the mobile communications device during an interval, the mobile device report being based on a Congested Byte Count Ratio for the mobile communication device CBCRmobile-device), wherein the CBCRmobile-device is represented by Equation 1;

Abstract
An IP endpoint comprising a processor; a memory; and an application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor receives from a mobile communications device a mobile device report indicating congestion experienced by data transmitted by the mobile communications device during an interval, receives from a network element an element report indicating congestion experienced by data transmitted by the network element during another interval, and generates a congestion model based on the mobile device report and the element report.

7. A network element comprising:
-
a memory; a processor configured to transmit data from an IP endpoint to a mobile communications device; and at least one application stored in the memory that, when executed by the processor; counts an amount of data transmitted by the network element, counts amount of the data marked as congestion experienced that is transmitted by the network element, generates a report based on a total byte count and a congestion experienced byte count during an interval, wherein the report comprises a Congested Byte Count Ratio for the network element (CBCRelement) represented by Equation 2; - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)
