Abstract

See full text

A traffic manager coupled to a communication system for scheduling transmission of information associated with a plurality of connections in the communication system. The traffic manager includes a priority queue, a connection data structure, and a scheduler. The connection data structure includes a guaranteed bit frame rate field for each connection. The scheduler is coupled to the connection data structure and the priority queue. The scheduler loads information from the data structure to the queue, wherein the scheduler shapes the connection for a minimum cell rate and allows use by the connection of excess bandwidth if the guaranteed bit rate field is set.
