  • Telecommunication transmission format suited for network-independent timing environments
    Patent number: 5005171
    Abstract: In a subrate-multiplexed communication system, a user channel whose data transmission rate fluctuates about a nominal rate from the viewpoint of a network--illustratively because the channel is timed independently from the network--is assigned a fixed amount of network bandwidth that defines a fixed transmission rate which exceeds the data signal rate of the user channel and is preferably equal to the maximum anticipated user-channel data signal rate plus the minimum acceptable control information transport rate.
