Method and electronic device for traffic shaping for a user equipment in a wireless communication network

Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a method and system for traffic shaping for a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network. The method comprises: estimating a congestion at each of a plurality of cells in the wireless communication network based on one or more network key performance indicators (KPIs) associated with the wireless communication network, collecting movement data of the UE by monitoring a movement of the UE connected to a first cell, predicting, based on the movement data and at least one of the estimated congestion and a bandwidth delay product (BDP) of the each of the plurality of cells, whether the UE is likely to be handed over from the first cell to a second cell, and transmitting a congestion notification to a core network of the wireless communication network based on the prediction, to perform traffic shaping for the UE upon receiving the congestion notification.
