摘要

There is disclosed a method and controller for controlling an information flow in a data transmission system including receiving a plurality of data packets. The method and controller also includes selectively discarding and/or selectively time-shifting the data packets in a predetermined manner to generate a modified information flow. The method and controller also includes selectively discarding and/or selectively time-shifting the data packets of the modified information flow to generate at least one further modified information flow. The further modified information flow may be obtained in a selected one of a plurality of parallel steps.
