Abstract
An apparatus and method for data cap management of users exceeding or violating bandwidth policies in a communication system. A model is created for identifying super heavy users, and trained usage data for all current users of the communication system for a predetermined time interval. Usage patterns of each user are analyzed over a second duration using the trained model in order to identify current super heavy users based, at least in part, on the analysis. Traffic flow control restrictions are then applied to some or all of the traffic associated with identified super heavy users.
