Claim Text:
1. A method comprising: receiving into a radio access network (RAN) a request to serve a user equipment device (UE) over an air interface with data communication of a session, wherein serving the UE over the air interface with the data communication of the session will result in transmission time interval (TTI) bundling over the air interface of the data communication of the session and TTI bundling over the air interface of other data communication with the UE; responsive to the request, determining by the RAN an air interface load that would be attributable to at least the TTI bundling of the other data communication with the UE over the air interface; determining by the RAN that the determined air interface load would exceed a predefined threshold; and responsive to determining that the determined air interface load would exceed the predefined threshold, taking action by the RAN to limit communication over the air interface with the UE.
