TRANSMISSION CAPACITY NEGOTIATION BETWEEN BASE STATIONS IN THE EVENT OF A FAILED INTERFACE TO CORE NETWORK FOR WIRELESS NETWORKS

摘要

A technique is provided for sending, by a first base station (BS), a data rate test notification to one or more neighbor BSs, performing, by the first BS, a data rate test between the first BS and the core network, receiving, by the first BS, a data rate reply message from one or more neighbor BSs indicating whether or not the data rate test caused a decrease in the data rate available to the neighbor BS, and reducing, by the first BS, an amount of resources available to the first BS for allocation to one or more bearers if one or more of the data rate reply messages indicate that the data rate test caused a decrease in the data rate available to the neighbor BS.
