Patent ID: 8107497

Claim:
A bandwidth negotiation system comprising: a multiplexing unit; a content storage unit communicatively coupled to the multiplexing unit via a communication network; and an analyzing unit communicatively coupled to the multiplexing unit via the communication network; wherein, the multiplexing unit is configured to control the data capacity of a network communication connection between a network data unit and at least one end user device and to transmit a message to the analyzing unit, the network data unit comprising a network communication hardware component for communicating data to the at least one end user device via the communication network; the analyzing unit is configured to receive the message from the multiplexing unit and to extract an identifier from the message and to transmit the identifier to the content storage unit, and the content storage unit is configured to match the identifier with a plurality of identifiers stored in a library on the content storage unit and to instruct the multiplexing unit to increase the data capacity of the network upon finding a match, wherein the identifier is a network address of the network data unit that provides data to the at least one end user device.
