CONTROLLING PACKET DATA FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES FROM A SPREAD SPECTRUM COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

Method and system for controlling packet data from multiple types of data
sources flowing into a multiuser channel. Provided is a queue for incoming
data, a
means for tracking a backlog of data in the queue, and a means for limiting
data flow
from the data sources. Packet data intended for the multiuser channel is
selectively
rerouted to another channel based on in part the tracked backlog. Where the
queue is a
plurality of queues the size of each individual queue may be decreased as the
tracked
backlog increases. Data packet latency and duplication is minimized.
