  • Traffic engineering for improved bandwidth allocations
    Patent number: 11831538
    Abstract: Systems and methods for routing packet data for transmission via a plurality of communication links are described. A method may include dividing a usage cycle for the plurality of communication links into a plurality of timeslots. Packet data traffic demands for the packet data for transmission via the plurality of communication links may be received. Based on a mixed integer linear programming model, an allocation of the packet data traffic demands to the plurality of communication links during the usage cycle may be determined using binary constraints of the mixed integer linear programming model. The binary constraints may prioritize respective subsets of the plurality of timeslots for at least some of the plurality of communication links. For each of the plurality of timeslots, an allocation of the packet data traffic demands to each of the plurality of communication links may be determined using the mixed integer linear programming model.
