  • Methods of transmitting data packets without exceeding a maximum queue time period and related devices
    Patent number: 7177274
    Abstract: Methods of transmitting data can include providing a data packet in a transmit buffer and providing a delay bound time period within which the data packet should be transmitted after being provided in the transmit buffer. After providing the data packet in the transmit buffer, a determination can be made if there is sufficient time to transmit the data packet before expiration of the delay bound time period. If there is insufficient time to transmit the data packet before expiration of the delay bound time period, the data packet can be flushed without initiating transmission of the data packet. Related devices are also discussed.
