Dequeuing and congestion control systems and methods for single stream multicast

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a device, data;
• determining, by the device, an instantaneous amount of allocated bandwidth used by each queue of a plurality of queues;
• determining, by the device, an average amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue;
• determining, by the device and based on the determined instantaneous amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue and the determined average amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue, bandwidth used by each queue;
• and
• using, by the device, the determined bandwidth used by each queue to determine information associated with processing the received data.

A device comprising:

• a memory to store instructions;
• and
• a processor to execute the instructions to:
• receive data;
• determine an instantaneous amount of allocated bandwidth used by each queue of a plurality of queues;
• determine an average amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue;
• determine, based on the determined instantaneous amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue and the determined average amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue, bandwidth used by each queue;
• and
• use the determined bandwidth used by each queue to determine information associated with processing the received data.

A system comprising:

• one or more devices to:
• receive data;
• determine an instantaneous amount of allocated bandwidth used by each queue of a plurality of queues;
• determine an average amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue;
• determine, based on the determined instantaneous amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue and the determined average amount of the allocated bandwidth used by each queue, bandwidth used by each queue;
• and
• use the determined bandwidth used by each queue to determine information associated with processing the received data.
