Abstract
A method for controlling accesses to resources of a communication network wherein at least two criteria are selected from the transmission-oriented and switching-oriented properties of resources of a communication network and time-division multiplex-oriented sub-resources are allocated with at least one criterion to network termination units arranged in the communication network. A waiting list is provided for each criterion wherein access requests to the sub-resources are allocated dependent on the selected criteria of the corresponding waiting list. The access to the corresponding sub-resources is granted by cyclical processing of the waiting lists wherein advantageously prioritized data streams are handled.
Claims8
A method for controlling accesses to resources of a communication network, wherein the communication network includes a plurality of network termination units, and the resources of the communication network are attributed with transmission-oriented and switching-oriented properties, the method comprising the steps of:
- selecting at least two criteria from the transmission-oriented and switching-oriented properties;
- allocating time-division multiplex-oriented sub-resources with at least one criterion to the network termination units;
- providing a waiting list for each of the selected criterion to which is associated waiting list-individual criterion;
- allocating access requests with selected criteria, of the network termination units to the sub-resources, to the respective waiting lists with the respectively associated waiting list-individual criteria;
- and
- granting access to the sub-resources according to the allocated access requests by cyclical processing of the waiting lists.
