METHOD FOR MANAGING FLUX FLOWS OF USER PLANE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORK Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC H04W76/02 H04L29/06 

FIELD: radio engineering, communication.

SUBSTANCE: discloses a method implemented by the first network node to control traffic flows of a user plane related to wireless devices in a wireless communication network. The first network node is configured to transmit traffic flows of the user plane along the first transmission path to the second network node in the wireless communication network. The method includes determining that the user plane traffic flow related to the wireless device must be transmitted on the second transmission path to an intermediate network node configured to communicate with the first and second network nodes in the wireless communication network based on the type of traffic flow of the user plane, a wireless device related to the user plane traffic flow and/or user traffic plane traffic content; And controlling the traffic flow of the user plane such that the user plane traffic flow is transmitted along the second transmission path to the intermediate network node in the wireless communication network. The intermediate network node is contained in the wireless communication network and redirects said user plane traffic flow to said second network node, and wherein said first network node comprises a base station node.

EFFECT: redirects user plane traffic between nodes in a wireless network.
