Abstract
A method for shedding signal load in a network having a plurality of devices is disclosed herein. The method comprises computer-implemented steps of (a) issuing a load-shedding policy, where the policy includes (i) fraction f of the signal to be discarded; (ii) device D where fraction f of the signal is to be discarded; and (iii) pattern P of discarding fraction f of the signal; (b) transmitting the issued load-shedding policy to device D; and (c) discarding portions of the signal at device D according to pattern P until fraction f of the signal is discarded.
