Title: Method for providing dynamic bandwidth allocation based on IP-flow characteristics in a wireless point to multi-point (PtMP) transmission system

Abstract: A method for allocating a shared wireless bandwidth in a packet-centric wireless point to multi-point telecommunications system. The method includes allocating the shared bandwidth between a wireless base station and one or more subscriber customer premises equipment (CPE) stations. The method can include dynamically allocating the shared bandwidth. The method can include allocating the shared bandwidth on a frame basis, such as (1) allocating the frame of the shared bandwidth in an uplink direction from a subscriber CPE station to the wireless base station; or (2) allocating the frame of the shared bandwidth in a downlink direction from the wireless base station to a subscriber CPE station. The method can also include: allocating the shared bandwidth on a subframe within a frame basis; allocating the subframe of the shared bandwidth in an uplink direction from a subscriber CPE station to the wireless base station; allocating the subframe of the shared bandwidth in a downlink direction from the wireless base station a subscriber CPE station.

Claims


What is claimed is:

1. A method for allocating a shared wireless bandwidth in a packet-centric wireless point to multi-point telecommunications system, the method comprising: analyzing contents of packets to be communicated over the shared wireless bandwidth in a downlink direction from a wireless base station to at least one customer premises equipment (CPE) station; analyzing reservation requests for packets to be communicated in the unlink direction from the at least one CPE station to the wireless base station, wherein each reservation request comprises a subscriber identifier and at least one other subscriber attribute, wherein the analyzing includes processing the subscriber identifier and the at least one other subscriber attribute to schedule packets in the uplink direction; and allocating the shared wireless bandwidth between the wireless base station transmitting in the downlink direction and the at least one CPE station transmitting in the uplink direction based on the analyzed contents and the analyzed reservation requests, wherein allocating the shared bandwidth comprises: assigning slots in a frame to the at least one CPE station; and communicating the assigned slots to the at least one CPE station in a reservation request acknowledgement section of a frame.
