Abstract:
Flow of digitized coded speech packets through virtual circuits in a multi-node communication system (300) is controlled by an adaptive loading capacity device (102) in the nodes (314, 316, 318). The adaptive loading capacity device (102) determines an adjusted throughput data rate ATDR (602, 604) for a node (314, 316, 318) that is substantially equivalent to a predetermined upper limit of the system's capacity. When a requested data rate value RDR included in a frame (200) is greater than the ATDR, the device automatically adjusts the RDR downward to substantially equal the ATDR (702, 704) and incorporates the adjusted RDR into frames (200) transmitted to coupled nodes (314, 316, 318) and stations (302, 308).
