Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A communication system comprising:
at least one data transmitting apparatus comprising at least a memory and a processor;
at least one data receiving apparatus comprising at least a memory and a processor;
at least one bridge apparatus comprising at least a memory and a processor, connected to the data transmitting apparatus and the data receiving apparatus through a communication path, and configured to receive a plurality of flows from the data transmitting apparatus and transfer the plurality of flows to the data receiving apparatus;
wherein the data transmitting apparatus includes a required band calculation unit configured to calculate a required band for the plurality of flows, in which, for a flow including burst data among the plurality of flows, the required band calculation unit calculates the required band for the flow based on a data size of the burst data and an allowable delay of the flow; and
wherein the bridge apparatus includes a speed ratio calculation unit configured to calculate a relative ratio of communication speeds of the plurality of flows based on the required band for the plurality of flows, wherein
the bridge apparatus transfers the plurality of flows to the data receiving apparatus according to the relative ratio of the communication speeds.
