This invention relates to a process for automatically allocating appropriate communication rates to different data communication lines connected to a common multiplex channel, in terms of the traffic on these lines and the available maximum rate S on this channel, so as to improve the data throughput on the common channel. To this end, Traffic Tin is, first, valuated on each line at time tn, according to formula: Tin= beta Fin+(1- beta )Tin-1 In this formula: Tin-1 is the traffic valuation at time tn-1, beta is a coefficient within 0 and 1, Fin is given by formula: Fin=bin[ alpha +(1- alpha )VM/Vi] wherein bin is the number of the bits "0" transferred on to the considered line between times tn-1 and tn, alpha is a coefficient within 0 and 1, VM is the highest operating rate on the line, and Vi is the actual rate on the considered line. Once the traffic Tin has been valuated for each line, each of the values Tin is associated with available rates so that the discrepancies between these traffic valuations and the rates associated therewith, are minimum, and the so-determined sum of the rates, is equal to S. |
