Embodiment Construction

[0046] figure 1 An exemplary wireless communication network 10 is shown including a core network 12 , a radio access network (RAN) 14 and one or more capillary networks 16 . The core network 12 and RAN 14 are part of a cellular network 15 using long range radio access technologies (eg LTE, WCDMA, GSM). Core network 12 provides connectivity to a packet data network 18 (eg, a wide area network such as the Internet). RAN 14 includes base stations 20 that communicate with capillary cellular gateways 24 (eg, capillary cellular gateways 24A and 24B) using long-range radio access technologies.

[0047] Capillary network 16 includes capillary cellular gateway 24 and also includes one or more managed devices 26 (eg, devices 26A, 26Z) connected to cellular network 15 through capillary cellular gateway 24 . The managed device 26 communicates with the capillary cellular gateway using a short-range wireless access technology (eg, WiFi, BLE). The capillary cellular gateway 24 connects th...

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to load balancing between different capillary cellular gateways (24) to indirectly account for the load caused by self-managing devices (27) not directly managed by a management node (28). Embodiments include methods implemented by a management node (28) that directly manages managed devices (26) in a capillary network (16). The method includes, for each of the managed devices (26), determining the profile caused by the managed device (26) and any self-managed devices (27) connected to the cellular network (15) via the managed device (26) Weight metric for total load. The method also includes, based on the weight metric, at least one managed device (26) reducing its weight metric by requesting that at least one managed device (26) move its entire total load to a different capillary cellular gateway (24) or shed its load to reduce its weight metric at the capillary cellular gateway (24 ) to balance the load.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to capillary networks, and in particular to load balancing of self-managed devices in indirect load capillary networks. Background technique [0002] A capillary network consists of a group of devices connected to a cellular network using short-range wireless access technologies such as Wi-Fi and BLE. A capillary network has two types of nodes: capillary cellular gateways and devices. Capillary cellular gateways (also called capillary gateways CGW) have uplinks via both long-range and short-range networks, while devices only have short-range wireless access technology. Capillary networks use the power of cellular networks to connect Internet of Things (loT) devices globally and integrate security and network management into the IoT paradigm. [0003] Typically, a capillary cellular gateway will include in its network all IoT devices in the area covered by its short-range wireless technology. The management node will ma...
