System and method for controlling packet data bandwidth

摘要

A system and method of managing the bandwidth of transmitted communications in a wireless network where a data packet ( 108 ) is received. The data packet ( 108 ) comprises a protocol identifier ( 110 ). At least one primary pattern identifier ( 110 ) is stored in a memory ( 103 ). The protocol identifier ( 110 ) is compared ( 204, 206 ) to the at least one primary pattern identifier and a data packet type is determined ( 210 ) based at least in part upon the comparing. A resource allocation scheme is selected from amongst a plurality of resource allocation schemes for application to a wireless network based at least in part upon the data packet type.
