Abstract
A Method for controlling an establishment or a modification of a connection according to a packet based transmission scheme in a communication network (100) comprising a plurality of nodes (102-112) is proposed. The connection (113) to be established or modified comprises or utilizes one or more entities potentially causing a transmission delay for a transmission over the connection. An indicator indicating an expected accumulated delay for the connection (124) is sent between nodes controlling the connection and one of the nodes controlling the connection checks the indicator when it performs a decision on the packetisation time to be applied for the connection.
Claims27
A method for controlling an establishment or a modification of a connection according to a packet based transmission scheme in a communication network comprising a plurality of nodes, wherein the connection to be established or modified comprises or utilizes one or more entities causing a transmission delay over the connection, an indicator indicating an expected accumulated delay for the connection is sent between nodes controlling the connection wherein one of the nodes controlling the connection checks the indicator when it determines a packetisation time to be applied for the connection.
A network node for controlling an establishment or a modification of a connection according to a packet based transmission scheme in a communication network comprising a plurality of nodes, wherein the connection to be established or modified comprises or utilizes one or more entities introducing a delay to a transmission over the connection, the network node comprising a reception unit for receiving an indicator indicating an expected accumulated delay for the connection and a decision unit for checking the indicator and performing a decision on a packetisation time to be applied for the connection.
