1. A system for managing communications network congestion, comprising: a radio access network (RAN) interface configured to receive RAN congestion indicators; a congestion correlator module configured to correlate RAN congestion indicators to service congestion indicators; a database comprising a set of congestion based policy rules, wherein the congestion-based policy rules establish control responses based on at least one or more service congestion indicator; a policy controller module configured to apply the congestion-based policy rules to achieve a policy decision; and a policy enforcement control point interface configured to transmit network control instructions to enforce the policy decisions.
