A method for operating a communication network includes a communication network providing a sender of a distributed real-time application and a receiver of the distributed real-time application with a communication connection, the distributed real-time application defining a minimum operable data rate. The sender periodically transmits data packets to the receiver via the provided communication connection at a data rate higher than the defined minimum operable data rate. The sender steadily determines a currently available bitrate of the communication connection, and adjusts the data rate to a data rate lower than the determined currently available bitrate by a data rate offset defined by the distributed real-time application. A node of the communication network learns the defined data rate offset and provides a guaranteed minimum bitrate of the communication connection higher than a booked minimum bitrate of the communication connection by the learned data rate offset.

A system for packet-based scheduling for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) sessions or User Datagram Protocol (UDP) sessions includes: a first bonding module comprising a first scheduling module and at least two access interfaces connected to at least one transport network, wherein the first bonding module is configured to be connected to a user device, wherein a TCP tunnel is configured via each of the access interfaces which terminates at a second bonding module, and wherein the first scheduling module is configured to schedule and distribute data packets via the TCP tunnels towards the second bonding module. The second bonding module comprises a second scheduling module and at least one access interface connected to each of the at least one transport network, wherein the second bonding module is configured to be connected to a server and to schedule and distribute data packets via the TCP tunnels towards the first bonding module.
