Cell congestion management becomes an urgent need for mobile operators, and a number of DPI, traffic management and policy server vendors are addressing the need. See previous posts on this issue - here.

See "BroadHop and CommProve Team to Deliver Industry’s First End-to-End Intelligent Application and Subscriber RAN Congestion Management" - here.
"The combined BroadHop and CommProve offering manages localized RAN congestion, maintaining the best quality of experience during congested periods to .. Apply targeted policies to intelligently manage subscriber, application, bandwidth usage and prioritize traffic .. Ensure fair access for all subscribers during network congestion periods .. Accurately track subscriber cell location to enforce policies only for devices active in a congested area without the need for additional location updates to be provided from the network .."

Still not clear which element enforces the policies. CommProve uses Qosmos' DPI engine (see "CommProve and Qosmos Offer Layer 7 Visibility into Mobile Traffic" - here).
