Abstract

A system and method for switching one or more User Equipment (UEs) 116A-N from a unicast mode to a broadcast or multicast mode to transmit a streaming media content to the UEs 116A-N is provided. The system includes, an Over-the-top (OTT) platform 104, a CDN 112, the UEs 116A-N, a cellular core network 202, one-to-many offload core 204, an analytics engine 206, a database 208, one-to-many transmitter 210, a real time switching module 212, a Cellular base station 214 and a user specified rules module 222. The analytics engine 206 continuously analyzes real-time and historical data stored in the database 208 to identify the UEs 116A-N that receive a streaming media content through the unicast mode and the streaming media content to be offloaded. An offload is a process by which certain portions of the streaming media content is shifted from the unicast mode to the broadcast or multicast mode.
