Abstract
A method and device for controlling transfer of cells in an ATM equipment, using the statistical multiplexing effect to control the transfer speed at regular intervals, so as to realize an efficient management and a fine control of the information transfer speed. The cell control device includes a cell transfer control buffer, a cell transfer timing operating unit that performs a desired operation to calculate a cell transfer timing, using a first parameter T and a second parameter X, and a cell transfer control unit that controls the transfer timing of the cell from the buffer, based on the result from the cell transfer timing operating unit, to perform a cell transfer control at a peak rate of X/T in correspondence with a processing rate of the ATM equipment.
