Multi-service bandwidth allocation

摘要: A channel allocation mechanism for manages bandwidth using a profile to assure an available supporting the highest expected request by leaving contiguous segment support such requests. Configurations discussed further below define media types, and associate each with designating types assignable on that channel. Each type includes service bitrate, thus different formats of same (such as SD HD) are distinguished. specifies type, is associated one or more profiles. Further, mapping channels profiles reserve designation, indicating other (unreserved) be fully assigned before assigning reserved channels. The provide block bandwidth, so large requests do not encounter assignment failure from plurality sparsely allocated
