METHOD FOR ALLOCATING INTERNODAL LINK BANDWIDTH IN A PACKET ORIENTED COMMUNICATION NETWORK TO GUARANTEE DELAY QUALITY-OF-SERVICE

摘要

A device and method (422) allocate bandwidth on internodal links (424) is a communication network such that worst case maximum delays and worst case average delays in a packet oriented network are guaranteed while providing statistical gain in maintaining predetermined end-to-end delay QOS objectives for different traffic types.
