Abstract

See full text

A congestion-monitor control apparatus monitors a congestion condition of each output highway in an asynchronous transfer mode switching system transferring cells to output highways by using a cell-storage buffer. The apparatus includes a monitor circuit monitoring the number of cells stored in the cell-storage buffer for each output highway at a plurality of timings during a given monitor time interval. The apparatus further includes a first determination circuit comparing the number of times when the number of cells from the monitor circuit is equal to or more than a first threshold value during the given monitor time interval with a second threshold value and determining whether the congestion has occurred in a corresponding output highway based on a comparison result.
