ABSTRACT:
Methods are disclosed for mitigating the impact of resource limitations caused by privileged use schemes, such as WPS and/or GETS, on non-privileged users of a communication system. In one embodiment, a resource controller or switch (#), responsive to receiving (202) an information request from a non-privileged user, retrieves (206, 214) information regarding the percentage or quantity of resources that are being used by privileged users. In one embodiment, upon determining (304) that resources are unavailable for a non-privileged user, a bid option (314) and/or queuing option (322) is offered so as to reduce occurrences of calls (or re-attempted calls) being terminated due to lack of resources.
