SERVICE FLOW SCHEDULING METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18339273 Titled 'SERVICE FLOW SCHEDULING METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method and system for scheduling service flows in a network. If a high-priority service flow does not meet the required transmission quality, a network device adjusts the transmission rate of a lower-priority service flow to prioritize the higher-priority flow. This is done by shaping the traffic of the lower-priority flow, allowing the bandwidth resource of the network device to be allocated to the higher-priority flow. The goal is to ensure that the higher-priority flow meets its service level requirement.


Original Abstract Submitted

A service flow scheduling method and apparatus, and a system. When transmission quality of a service flow with a higher priority does not meet a service level requirement corresponding to the service flow, a first network device adjusts, to a first threshold, a transmission rate threshold of an HQoS model for a service flow with a lower priority, where the first threshold is less than a current data transmission rate of the service flow with a lower priority. By performing traffic shaping on the service flow with a lower priority, a bandwidth resource of a downlink port of the first network device may give way to the service flow with a higher priority, to ensure that the service flow with a higher priority meets the service level requirement of the service flow with a higher priority.
