Abstract:
Systems and methods for optimizing system performance of capacity and spectrum constrained, multiple-access communication systems by selectively discarding packets are provided. The systems and methods provided herein can drive changes in the communication system using control responses. One such control responses includes the optimal discard (also referred to herein as “intelligent discard”) of network packets under capacity constrained conditions. The systems and methods prioritize packets and make discard decisions based upon the prioritization. Some embodiments provide an interactive response by selectively discarding packets to enhance perceived and actual system throughput, other embodiments provide a reactive response by selectively discarding data packets based on their relative impact to service quality to mitigate oversubscription, others provide a proactive response by discarding packets based on predicted oversubscription, and others provide a combination thereof.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 11 , further comprising:\n receiving a request for admission of a new communication service; determining whether the sum of the anticipated bandwidth consumption for supporting currently operating communication services of the network device and an estimated Quality of Service (QoS) value associated with the new communication service is less than the total available bandwidth of the network device; determining, in the case that the sum of the anticipated bandwidth consumption for supporting currently operating communication services and the QoS value associated with the new communication service is not less than the total available bandwidth of the network device, whether the new communication service can be admitted in a degraded state; and admitting, in the case that the new communication service can be admitted in a degraded state, the new communication service in the degraded state.
