Abstract

See full text

In a multimedia communications system where bandwidth of an access facility is limited, the bandwidth is partitioned into three bands dedicated to audio, video and data traffic, respectively, in accordance with blocking probabilities associated with the respective media types. The value of each blocking probability is selected pursuant to the relative importance of the associated media type in a multimedia service. With the blocking probabilities in place, the dominance of traffic of a particular media type, which may be relatively unimportant in the service, would not cause blocking of traffic of other media types, which may be relatively important.
