Abstract

See full text

For both a bandwidth-guaranteed connection call and a non-bandwidth-guaranteed connection call together, with respect to the bandwidth-guaranteed connection call, a schedular allocates the number of time slots which correspond to a required bandwidth to the bandwidth-guaranteed connection call from among the N time slots that constitute one period and so controls as to transmit an ATM cell at an allocated time slot. The non-bandwidth-guaranteed call transmitting unit transmits an ATM cell of a non-bandwidth-guaranteed connection call at a time slot which is not allocated to any bandwidth-guaranteed connection call. A congestion/normal state monitoring unit sets in advance a queue length which is regarded as the occurrence of a long-term congestion in a queuing buffer and compares the actual queue length with the preset queue length so as to detect the occurrence of a long-term congestion.
