Packet Scheduling System

总结
A significant problem in data networks is that of congestion control, especially at switching nodes which receive incoming data packets from a number of channels, determine the next destination of these incoming packets, and send them to their destinations. Fair Queuing (FQ) is therefore needed to provide QoS guarantee among different traffic streams while sharing the network resources efficiently and fairly. However, one of the major drawbacks of past implementation of FQ is the implementation complexity. Although a number of variants have been proposed to simplify the implementation, these schemes still require individual time-stamps attached to each packet, which makes the implementation still very complex.

The invention relates to a packet scheduling system and in particular to a scheduling system suitable for use in a packet switched network for providing high-speed data transmission. By using simple counters in each traffic stream, each arriving packet in a channel is provided with a virtual time tag. The packets are then sorted in a queue based upon the time tag. The smaller the time tag, the higher is the priority given to the packet, and the packet at the head of the queue is then transmitted to a first-in-first-out (FIFO) server for onward transmission to a high-speed transmission link. Such a system is very good at providing fairness between different traffic stream.
