Abstract
The invention relates to a method and system for providing allocation of resources depending on the characteristics of the flow request. The system allocates resources based upon at least one of the parameters class of service, delay requirement and bandwidth requirement of the flow request. During a call process, the system keeps updating the service rate allocated to meet the QoS requirement of a new flow request, the updated service rate being allocated to a new flow request of the same type. The system learns the traffic pattern and adjusts a current airlink performance to allocate a service rate to flows.
Claims30
Method for determining allocation of resources in a communication system comprising at least two entities, the resources being allocated for transmitting, receiving, or forwarding information, the information being transmitted as flows, wherein the system allocates resources based upon at least one of the parameters, class of service, delay requirement and bandwidth requirement of the flow request, and wherein, during a call or connection between the atleast two entities, the system monitors at least one of the said parameters for updating the service rate allocated to meet the QoS requirement of a flow request, the updated service rate being allocated to a new flow request of the same type.
System for determining allocation of resources in a communication system comprising at least two entities, the system comprising allocation means for allocating the resources for transmitting, receiving, or forwarding information, the information being transmitted as flows, wherein the system allocates resources based upon at least one of the parameters, class of service, delay requirement and bandwidth requirement of the flow request, comprising means for monitoring, during a call or connection between the at least two entities, at least one of said parameters for updating the service rate allocated to meet the QoS requirement of a flow request, the allocation means allocating the updated service rate to a new flow request of the same type.
