Definitions
- Method for dynamic allocation of bit rates for a communication network in particular a network of the high bit rate type.
- the present invention relates to a dynamic rate allocation method for a communication network, in particular a network of the high speed type such as an ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) network.
- a network of the high speed type such as an ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) network.
- ATM networks have been designed to be able to support multimedia data streams, such as data, sounds, images and video.
- multimedia data streams such as data, sounds, images and video.
- ATM technology allows the same medium to transmit flows with different speeds and performance demands.
- ATM networks are designed to be able to manage resources and guarantee quality of service.
- a connection Before being established, a connection must request it from the network, specifying the desired characteristics, and in particular the speed it intends to reserve and the desired quality of service. If necessary, it specifies, in its request, the minimum speed that the network must guarantee. If the network judges it has the resources sufficient to satisfy the request, then it establishes the connection but it also guarantees the requested speed and quality of service.
- CBR Constant Bit Rate
- VBR Variable Bit Rate
- ABR Atauilable Bit Rate
- ABT ATM Block Transfer
- ABR and ABT The mechanisms which are generally implemented for the classes of service known as ABR and ABT, the only ones considered here, are the following.
- a specialized cell hereinafter called the resource management cell
- the resource management cell will cover the entire path followed by the user cells of this connection.
- a protocol is implemented to verify that the bit rate allocated so far for the connection does not exceed a value determined according to the other connections of the moment. If this is the case, this node will allocate to the connection a new speed, the value of which will be placed in the resource management cell.
- An allocation process is planned to be implemented at the nodes of a network. It allows to allocate, to each of the sources whose connections converge on a network node and following a speed request formulated by said source, a cell speed so as to share the maximum band offered by the output link of said node.
- bit rate allocation methods are generally implemented for connections carrying data and make use in queue nodes of the FIFO type, which cannot be envisaged for the transmission of video because of the specificity thereof. this with regard to the bit rates which are necessarily high, the transmission delay times which cannot be too great, etc.
- the aim of the present invention is therefore to propose a bit rate allocation method allowing an equitable sharing of the bandwidth used by different real time sources, in particular video sources.
- a method according to the invention is characterized in that it consists, during successive cycles, of: a) at the start of each cycle, assigning a flow rate to each of said connections, and b) during the cycle, allocate, on the one hand, to each connection whose required speed is higher than the speed which has been allocated to it, the speed which has been allocated to it, said connection then being counted and marked as a clipped connection, and, on the other hand share, for each connection whose required speed is lower than the speed assigned to it, either the speed already allocated in the previous cycle if in this previous cycle said connection had not been marked as a clipped connection, or the required speed if in the previous cycle said connection had been marked as a clipped connection, the difference between the value of the allocated speed and the value of the allocated speed then being counted as the value of unallocated speed, c) and, at the end of said cycle, calculate a new speed value to be assigned to the next cycle for each of said connections on the basis of the recorded value of unallocated speed
- it consists in assigning to each of said sources, during an initial cycle, a bit rate corresponding to the equitable sharing between all the sources of the maximum band offered by the output link of said node.
- it consists in calculating the new bit rate value to be assigned to the following cycle to each of the clipped connections by equitably sharing the unallocated bit rate between said clipped connections. According to another characteristic of the invention, it consists in calculating the new rate value to be assigned to the following cycle to each of said connections by sharing equally between said clipped connections said unallocated rate from which the excess assigned rate value is removed.
- the period of each cycle is greater than the renegotiation period implemented by the equipment of said network.
- the period of each cycle is greater than the renegotiation period implemented by the equipments of said network increased by the maximum duration of the times respectively taken by resource management cells of said connections to make the complete path from the source considered at the other end of the network and return to said source.
- it is intended to count the requests originating from each of the sources, said method examining only requests which have the same order number.
- it is intended to mark a connection after receipt of the request from the corresponding source, said mark being canceled at the start of each cycle, and said method examining only requests from sources whose connections are already marked.
- it consists in weighting the bit rates respectively assigned to the sources.
- Each weighting factor advantageously depends on the guaranteed minimum bit rate requested by the corresponding source. It is for example equal to the minimum guaranteed bit rate requested by said source divided by the total sum of the minimum guaranteed bit rates respectively requested by all sources.
- the bit rate which is assigned to a source can then be equal to a bit rate value common to all the sources multiplied by said weighting factor.
- the bit rate assigned to each source being the highest bit rate between the current bit rate of the connection concerned and the bit rate value fairly distributed among all sources.
- it consists in keeping in the context of each connection a number characterizing the cycle.
- the method according to the invention is implemented in each node of a network.
- a register Reg is kept in which is stored the rate value which is allocated to this communication.
- the source of each communication transmits a resource management cell RM on the path of the communication.
- this RM cell carries the flow value required by the source.
- the value carried by the management cell RM and that stored in the register Reg of the node are compared. If the flow value stored in the Reg register is less than the flow value carried by the management cell RM, then the latter is modified by taking the value stored in the register Reg. On the other hand, if it is equal or greater, then the value carried by the RM management cell is not modified.
- the RM management cell is returned to the source. It then carries the lowest speed value which has been allocated to the communication by the network and which is therefore authorized by the latter along the communication path. The source then adapts its user cell transmission rate to this new value.
- the cells which carry the data for example image and sound data, emitted by the source intended for its interlocutor are called here user cells.
- the method according to the invention therefore relates to the allocation of a bit rate to a communication.
- This allocation is dynamic in the sense that it is subject to a rate renegotiation which is carried out with the periodicity T of transmission of the RM resource management cells.
- each node of the network sees pass, in a period T, a single and unique rate renegotiation request and responds to it, by means of the method of the invention, by allocating a rate there for its user cells.
- the method of the invention is therefore implemented according to successive cycles of period T. We will describe the different stages of the method as they appear in a cycle.
- the required value Rq is greater than the value RI.
- the source request is said to be clipped at the RI value and is marked accordingly.
- the value of the flow allocated to them is currently equal to the value RI.
- the entire band not yet allocated during the cycle is stored in the register ⁇ and the number of clipped communications is stored in the counter m.
- the connections which have been clipped are authorized to increase, in the following cycle, their bit rate by a value corresponding to the band of the output link of the node which has not yet been allocated divided by the number m of clipped communications.
- RI 5
- the total flow affected is N • RI or fifteen units.
- the assignment of a speed to a communication is not the allocation.
- the value of the assigned speed is the maximum speed value that the node can allocate to this connection.
- the value of the allocated speed is unrelated to the value of allocated speed. The difference between the value of the allocated bit rate and the value of the allocated bit rate is counted as the unallocated band value.
- Each of the communications C2 and C3 which have been clipped to the value of five units only these five units are allocated.
- the allocated speed value is equal to the assigned speed value.
- the band available for all communications is the band available on the output link of the node, ie C.
- this total allocated bit rate Da can be greater than the maximum capacity C of the node output link.
- This excess flow De therefore has the value:
- R1 R1 + m
- the current cycle is interrupted. Then we modify the value which is stored in the RI register and we start a new cycle from this connection.
- the new value of RI is equal to the maximum between the speed value previously allocated to the connection concerned and the value of speed fairly distributed%, C being the speed available on the output link of the node considered and N being the number of active connections at the time considered.
- a counter is provided for counting the requests emanating from each of the sources, the method then being provided for examining only the connections which have the same serial number.
- the period of modification of the register RI is greater than the renegotiation period implemented by the network equipments provided for this purpose.
- this period is increased by the maximum value of the times respectively taken by the RM resource management cells of the active connections. to make the complete trip from the source to the other end of the network and return to the source.
- all of the sources have had time to comply with the speeds authorized by the various nodes of the network, compliance which can only take place after the resource management cell RM who carries the information corresponding to the flow allocated to the source has had time to return to the source. This way of proceeding allows the process a certain robustness compared to the rupture of certain links.
- each connection is marked once having made a request and this mark is deleted at the start of each cycle. Thus, in a given cycle, a request is therefore no longer accepted if it originates from a connection which has already been marked.
- a sequence number is assigned to each cycle which is incremented by one for each new cycle .
- This serial number is memorized for each connection after its analysis in the cycle. So, suppose we are in the Cy cycle. In this cycle, before analysis, at a given connection, the Cy number is stored. 1. After analysis, the Cy number is stored. Before allocating a flow to a source, it is checked that the sequence number memorized for the connection considered is one unit less than that of the current cycle. If this is the case, the allocation is implemented. Otherwise, it is not implemented, because it means that said connection has already been analyzed in the current cycle.
- each source requests a maximum flow rate.
- the method also applies to the case where one would like to take into account an equity which would be proportional to the minimum guaranteed bit rates of the sources. To do this, we would proceed as follows.
- DMd is the weighting factor applied to the source Q.
- connection Ci is therefore clipped at the speed value R ,. If we consider an R register in which the value of the total bit rate assigned to all connections is stored, the bit rate value R, assigned to a connection will be equal to:
- ⁇ represents unallocated throughput
- DMGj represents the sum of the clipping factors weighting only the connections that have been clipped.
