Optimized management of real-time transmission capacity in a digital broadcast system

摘要

The method involves summing requirements at transmission capacity at respective time intervals and determining smallest possible common data transmission rate for the common data stream at respective time intervals. Difference between the common smallest data transmission rate and existing data transmission rate is assigned to a number of additional individual data streams, in such a manner that the summed up requirements at the transmission capacity in time interval are transferable with the difference at the data transmission rate, with minimum unused data transmission rate. An independent claim is also included for a transmission device for multiple data streams.
