Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, and systems for dynamic bandwidth allocation are disclosed. One method includes identifying, by a first distribution node of a wireless mesh network, a communication link with a second distribution node of the wireless mesh network, generating, by the first distribution node, a proposed bandwidth allocation schedule for wireless communication of information between the first distribution node and the second distribution node based on data traffic requirements of the first distribution node, wherein the second distribution node receives the proposed bandwidth allocation schedule, and wherein the second distribution node adjusts the proposed bandwidth allocation schedule based upon data traffic requirements of the second distribution node. The method further includes receiving, by the first distribution node, the adjusted proposed bandwidth allocation schedule from the second distribution node, and communicating, by the first distribution node, information with the second distribution node according to the adjusted proposed bandwidth allocation schedule.
