Özet

The Adaptive Resource Allocation and Management (ARAM) algorithms are intended to manage a Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) system supporting heterogeneous traffic mixes and operating under dynamic channel conditions. ARAM attempts to maximize the utilization of the available capacity on the forward DBS link while maintaining Quality of Service (QoS) in the presence of congestion in the network and channel degradation effects. These ends are achieved by RAM through adaptive control of video compression rates, data transmission rates, and channel forward error correction rates.
