Abstract:
1. A resource management method in a wireless management network, the method comprising: setting a priority factor value with regard to a link flow for which link establishment is requested; and if a capacity required by the flow for which link establishment is requested exceeds a remaining capacity of a base station, increasing the remaining capacity of the base station by sequentially reducing a minimum reserved rate (MRR) value of flows that receive a service at a lower priority than the flow for which link establishment is requested to a maximum sustained rate (MSR) value, until the remaining capacity required by the flow for which link establishment is requested is generated, wherein the increasing of the remaining capacity comprises: performing a first operation of sequentially reducing an MRR value of flows that receive a service at a lower priority than the flow for which link establishment is requested to an MSR value in the class to which the flow for which link establishment is requested belongs, until the remaining capacity is generated so as to admit the flow for which link establishment is requested, and wherein the increasing of the remaining quantity comprises: if the class to which requested link establishment belongs is an unsolicited grant service (UGS) class, skipping the first operation and performing a second operation of sequentially reducing an MRR value of flows that receive a service at a lower priority than the flow for which link establishment is requested to an MSR value in a class other than the UGS class, until the remaining capacity is generated so as to admit the flow for which link establishment is requested.
