7620068, Nov 17, 2009

Filed:

Nov 8, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/983482

Inventors:

Robert D. Stultz - Melbourne FL, US
Bradford L. Kizzort - Melbourne FL, US
Robert J. Knazik - Cocoa Beach FL, US

Assignee:

Harris Corporation - Melbourne FL

International Classification:

H04J 3/16
H04J 3/02

US Classification:

370468, 370537

Abstract:

A method and a system for optimizing bandwidth utilization in a communications network () in which a commutated bitstream () is transmitted. The present invention can include a commutation format definition generator () which processes at least one triage value () to automatically generate commutation format definitions (). The triage values can represent priority levels of data elements () in particular system states () and can be used to determine data transmission rates applicable to the data elements. The system can include a data source () which can process the commutation format definitions to generate the commutated bitstream. The data source can select a new commutation format definition to change the format of the commutated bitstream when the system state of the data source changes and optimize the commutated bitstream for the current system state and the current available network bandwidth.

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709246

Abstract:

A system and method for propagating data commutates data from different data sources into a data stream based on a commutation format. The data is received and decommutated to replicate the data. The commutation format can be changed for prioritizing different data from the data sources.

International Classification:

H04L 12/26

US Classification:

370252

Abstract:

A method () for optimizing bandwidth utilization in a communications network (). The communications network can include a data source () and a data client (). Responsive to a measurement of at least one communication parameter () of a commutated bitstream () which is transmitted to the client, the data source can change a commutation format of the commutated bitstream. The communication parameters can include a data receive time (T), a data latency and/or an effective receive data rate (D) of the commutated bitstream. The communication parameters can be transmitted to the data source as telemetry. The change of commutation format can occur in an open systems interconnection (OSI) layer such as a session layer and/or a transport layer.

Assignee:

HARRIS CORPORATION - Melbourne FL

International Classification:

H04L 7/00

US Classification:

375354000

Abstract:

A system and a method for dynamically synchronizing a client () to a data source (). The method can include the step of dynamically selecting a first length of format data to correspond to an amount of bandwidth of a commutated bitstream () allocated for synchronization. At least a first portion of a first format definition can be transmitted in the commutated bitstream (). A size of the first portion can correspond to the first length of format data. The method also can include transmitting a current sentinel () in the commutated bitstream (), the current sentinel () identifying a current commutation format of the commutated bitstream (). An indication () can be received from the client that indicates that the client requires the first format definition. The step of transmitting the first portion of the first format definition can be responsive to the client indication.
