National traffic steering device for a better control of a specific wireless/LTE network
First Claim
1. One or more traffic management computing devices comprising:
- memory comprising programmed instructions stored in the memory;
one or more processors configured to be capable of executing the programmed instructions stored in the memory to;
determine an amount of data during a session comprising the data communicated between a terminal device and at least one of a plurality of network computing devices; and
cancel the session comprising the data communicated between the terminal device and at least one of the plurality of network computing devices when the determined amount of the data communicated between the terminal device and at least one of the plurality of network computing devices during the session exceeds a predefined maximum threshold or is less than a predefined minimum threshold, wherein the terminal device is in an idle mode after the session is cancelled; and
scan a network to which the data communicated between the terminal device and at least one of the plurality of network computing devices will be redirected when the terminal device is in the idle mode.

Abstract
This technology discloses a controlling and steering device for maintaining national connection between a mobile device of a subscriber and a mobile network. The system comprises: a tracing module, a steering logic module and a communication module. The tracing module is configured to: (i) periodically sample a mobile device of a subscriber or a location of the mobile device; and (ii) check amount of data sent and received from the mobile device is below a specified threshold. The steering logic module is configured to determine if a national connection between a mobile device of a subscriber via a Mobility Management Entity (MME) and a mobile network via a Home Subscriber Server (HSS) is permitted and wherein the communication module is arranged to send and receive messages from HSS to MME and from MME to HSS.

23. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for maintaining a connection between a mobile device of a subscriber and a mobile network comprising executable code which when executed by a processor, causes the processor to perform steps comprising:
-
determining an amount of data during a session comprising data communicated between a terminal device and at least one of a plurality of network computing devices; and cancel the session comprising the data communicated between the terminal device and the at least one of the plurality of network computing devices when the determined amount of the data communicated between the terminal device and at least one of the plurality of network computing devices during the session exceeds a predefined maximum threshold or is less than a predefined minimum threshold, wherein the terminal device is in an idle mode after the session is cancelled; and scanning for a network to which the data communicated between the terminal device and at least one of the plurality of network computing devices will be redirected when the terminal device is in the idle mode. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33)
