Maximizing Downlink Bandwidth Allocation Method Based on SVC in Mobile WiMAX Networks for Generic Broadband Services
Algorithm 1
Downlink bandwidth allocation method for different traffic profiles.
Downlink Bandwidth Allocation Method (DBAM) | IF call traffic = UGS or ERT-VR traffic | Calculate bandwidth according to sustained rate. | Allocate bandwidth. | IF call traffic = RT-VR traffic | IF call traffic = unicast | Calculate the bandwidth by leaky bucket algorithm and downlink adaptive adjustment. | Allocate bandwidth. | ELSE IF call traffic = multicast | IF user burst profile = 64-QAM | According the burst profile assigns MCID, and the SS can access base layer and two enhancement layers. | ELSE IF user burst profile = 16-QAM | According the burst profile assigns MCID, and the SS can access base layer and one enhancement layer. | ELSE IF user burst profile = QPSK | According the burst profile assigns MCID, and the SS can only access base layer. | IF call traffic = NRT-VR traffic | The bandwidth allocated to NRT-VR based on minimum required rate | IF call traffic = BE traffic | IF excess bandwidth = True | Allocate bandwidth. |
