Patent number: 9124499Abstract: A frame transmission system includes a frame transmitter and a frame receiver. The frame transmitter includes a frame fragmentation unit and a reproduction header appending unit. The frame fragmentation unit fragments an input frame and outputs transfer frames when the length of the input frame exceeds a predetermined fragmentation reference frame length, and does not fragment the input frame and outputs the input frame as a transfer frame when the length of the input frame is less than or equal to the fragmentation reference frame length. The reproduction header appending unit appends a reproduction header to the transfer frames outputted from the frame fragmentation unit. Here, the reproduction header being required when the transfer frames are reproduced at a receiving side. The reproduction header appending unit varies the header length of the reproduction header to be appended to the transfer frame, according to the length of the input frame.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2013Date of Patent: September 1, 2015Assignees: FUJITSU TELECOM NETWORKS LIMITED, Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Makoto Takakuwa, Yasushi Nishine, Fumihiko Saito, Takashi Fukagawa, Mika Tokunaga, Toshihiro Koji, Tamotsu Matsuo, Takashi Monzawa, Liu Wang

Patent number: 8000247Abstract: In a bandwidth management apparatus that outputs packets by observing the bandwidth set value predetermined for each destination, provisions are made to prevent a situation where the contracted bandwidth cannot be provided due to influences from packets destined for other destinations. When performing bandwidth management using token buckets provided one for each destination, each token bucket is updated by setting the upper limit token value higher when any packet is stored in the corresponding queue than when no packets are stored; this serves to prevent a situation where even when a packet has already arrived at the queue, the packet cannot be output because a packet is being output from some other queue and, as a result, unconsumed tokens are discarded at the next update time.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2006Date of Patent: August 16, 2011Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Hiroshi Urano, Masayuki Ogawa, Toshihiro Koji

Patent number: 7907632Abstract: A data communication apparatus has a data retainer, a retain state manager, a guaranteed bandwidth manager, a surplus bandwidth manager managing outputting of output data having a destination retained in the data retainer to an output line on a per-destination basis when the output data is outputted to the output line with the use of a surplus bandwidth that is a surplus over a sum of guaranteed bandwidths, and a scheduler scheduling outputting of data retained in the data retainer to the output line, based on results of managements by the guaranteed bandwidth manager and the surplus bandwidth manager and a retain state managed by the retain state manager. The apparatus manages the bandwidth with improved accuracy at the time of communication using a surplus bandwidth.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2008Date of Patent: March 15, 2011Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Hiroshi Urano, Toshihiro Koji, Masayuki Ogawa, Kenji Fukunaga, Tamotsu Matsuo

Patent number: 7706391Abstract: In a packet transmission method and device, when a received packet is written in a packet buffer, an address of the packet buffer is stored as a read address for each destination corresponding to a physical port and storing information of the received packet. The read address of a destination designated by the received packet information is read and saved when the received packet is read out of the packet buffer in accordance with a scheduling control. Then, the saved read address is taken out in accordance with an arbitration control and a received packet corresponding to the saved read address is read from the packet buffer.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2008Date of Patent: April 27, 2010Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Tamotsu Matsuo, Kenji Fukunaga, Toshihiro Koji, Masayuki Ogawa, Hiroshi Urano
