Abstract
Two different types of communications channels including first and second types are provided to support user connections in a communications system. A first type of channel supports a user connection. Thereafter, a current load or throughput on the first type of channel is detected. Based on the detected load or throughput, a corresponding data amount threshold is provided. A current amount of data to be transmitted over the user connection is detected. A determination is made whether to switch the user connection from the first type of channel to the second type of channel based on the current amount of data to be transmitted over the user connection and on the data amount threshold. In the example embodiment, the user connection is switched to the second type of channel when the current amount of data to be transmitted is greater than the data amount threshold. Otherwise, the user connection is maintained on the first type of channel.
