FIELD: radio engineering, communication.SUBSTANCE: packet buffer may store packets with a first data structure, comprising the packet length, sequence number and a pointer to a second data structure. Packet data may be stored in a linked list of one or more second data structures. Transmit and receive queues may be formed using linked lists or arrays of the first data structures. Memory locations for storing first and second data structures may be kept in lists indicating free locations for the respective data structure types. A flexible memory architecture in which two configurations may be selected is disclosed. In a first configuration, first memory comprises per-flow parameters for multiple flows, and second memory comprises a packet buffer. In a second configuration, the first memory comprises per-flow pointers to per-flow parameters in the second memory. The packet buffer resides in third memory.EFFECT: efficient high-speed medium access control.5 cl, 62 dwg |
