Abstract

See full text

Various embodiments provide a method and apparatus providing signaling protocol overload control by enhancing hop-by-hop overload control using cooperation between an “upstream server” or Sending Entity (SE) and the server receiving the signaling request messages and replying with signaling reply messages for a session the “downstream server” or Receiving Entity (RE). In particular, an overload control mechanism for a signaling request transmitted between an SE and the RE allows the RE to receive from the SE a predicted load based on the original un-throttled signaling load information at the SE. The RE may then base decisions such as an overload trigger or a resource scaling decision based on the received un-throttled predicted load at the SE.
