  • Method and apparatus for traffic shaping
    Patent number: 8565086
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a traffic shaper that uses a traffic shaping algorithm based on a sustained rate token bucket and a constant rate emitter. The sustained rate token bucket uses a plurality of tokens based on the sustained rate and the sustained burst size. The constant rate emitter allows transmission of traffic at an adjusted transmission rate, where the adjusted transmission rate is derived from the peak rate, peak burst size, sustained rate and sustained burst size.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 6, 2010
    Date of Patent: October 22, 2013
    Assignee: Ericsson AB
    Inventors: Minghua Chen, Thomas Wing Tong Ng
