A method for transmission of data packets through a network

摘要

The data packets with a maximum allowable delay (mad) are aggregated in a node of the network according to an aggregation strategy with timeout to a burst, wherein on arrival and buffering of a first packet a timer is started and succeeding packets are buffered until a time (T) is elapsed, the buffered packets are sent as a burst into the network and with the next arriving and buffered packet the timer respectively this cycle is started again, where said time (T) is determined by the product of the maximum allowable delay (mad) for a packet multiplied with the value 2.
