Patent ID: 8924983

Claim:
A method for processing inter-subframe service load balancing, comprising: determining a service load of a link over a period of time; determining a threshold of resource utilization ratio according to the service load; and transmitting service data in respective subframes according to the threshold of resource utilization ratio; wherein the amount of additional data to be transmitted in a current link direction over a future period of time is determined when the service load of the link over the period of time is determined; and the threshold of resource utilization ratio is determined according to the amount of additional data and the spectrum efficiency of a system when the threshold of resource utilization ratio is determined according to the service load, wherein the spectrum efficiency is the number of bits transmitted per second over a transmission channel with a given bandwidth wherein the amount of additional data to be transmitted in each type of service or each type of Radio Bearer, RB, in the current link direction over the future period of time is determined when the amount of additional data to be transmitted in the current link direction over the future period of time is determined; and the threshold of resource utilization ratio is determined according to the amount of additional data to be transmitted and the transmission efficiency of each type of service or each type of RB over the period of time when the threshold of resource utilization ratio is determined according to the amount of data, wherein the amount of additional data to be transmitted in the current link direction over the future period of time is determined by: making a statistic of the amount of arriving downlink data packets of each RB over a period of time T, data i (n); and determining a service transmission demand of the amount of additional data to be transmitted in RB i over a future next period of time nT˜(n+1)T, DATA i (n), according to data i (n), wherein RB i with a different value of the subscript i represents a different RB, wherein make DATA i (n)=β·data i (n)+(1−β)·DATA i (n−1) or DATA i (n)=data i (n) when the service transmission demand of the amount of additional data to be transmitted in RB i over the future next period of time nT˜(n+1)T, DATA i (n), is determined according to data i (n), wherein β is a smooth factor and 0≦β≦1, and DATA i (n−1) is a service transmission demand of the amount of additional data to be transmitted in RB i over a period of time before nT˜(n+1)T.
