CA 2711940

Differentiated services are provided through service level agreements (SLAs) between access nodes and some of the clients using a wireless access network. Client devices include internal devices that are compliant with service-related specifi-cations published by the access nodes. Client devices also may include non-compliant external and legacy devices, as well as out-side interferers. The access nodes control target SLAs for each client device. The access nodes and the internal client devices per-form rate limiting to ensure that a device's target SLA is adhered to. The service-related specifications include schedules to ensure preferential access for preferred internal client devices. The internal client devices send usage and bandwidth availability feedback to the access node they are associated with, enabling the access node to come up with better schedules for meeting the preferred internal devices' SLAs in view of the network conditions reported via the feedback.

Selon l'invention, des services différenciés sont fournis par des accords de niveau de service (SLA) entre des nuds d'accès et certains clients au moyen d'un réseau d'accès sans fil. Les dispositifs clients comprennent des dispositifs internes qui sont conformes à des spécifications relatives aux services, publiées par les nuds d'accès. Les dispositifs clients peuvent également comprendre des dispositifs patrimoniaux et externes non conformes, ainsi que des émetteurs brouilleurs externes. Les nuds d'accès commandent des SLA cibles pour chaque dispositif client. Les nuds d'accès et les dispositifs clients internes effectuent une limitation de débit pour assurer qu'un SLA cible de dispositif est respecté. Les spécifications relatives aux services comprennent des programmes visant à garantir un accès préférentiel aux dispositifs clients internes préférés. Les dispositifs clients internes envoient une rétroaction de disponibilité d'utilisation et de bande passante au nud d'accès auquel ils sont associés, ce qui permet au nud d'accès d'élaborer de meilleurs programmes pour correspondre aux SLA des dispositifs internes préférés, en fonction des conditions de réseau rapportées par la rétroaction.
