Abstract

See full text

In summary, a method and apparatus for performing a connection admission control in an asynchronous network node is disclosed, wherein approximation parameters obtained by approximating a traffic parameter function defining an effective bandwidth of a connection are stored and used to determine a value representing an effective bandwidth of a requested new connection. Since the approximation parameters are calculated in advance and stored, the determination of the effective bandwidth of a requested connection can be performed by simple calculations based on the stored approximation parameters. Thus, the invention presents an extremely simple CAC procedure which is accurate enough to take full advantage of statistical multiplexing. Due to the fast calculations, the connection admission control method and apparatus are suitable for real-time connection admission control decisions.
