Method for overload defence in a communication network

Abstract

Abstract The method involves using a set of equations to determine time gap periods in a central node which serves a number of peripheral nodes. The calculated timer values are transmitted from the central node for three-stage overload monitoring. The calculation depends on the type of traffic on the network the signalling interval for monitoring of the traffic and the traffic volume. The peripheral nodes can either hold incoming service requests themselves or even block them in the service switching points. Loads at peripheral nodes are calculated individually according to the type of traffic on the network.
