Abstract

A dynamic bandwidth assignment system includes a network unit for carrying out cell slot assignment, and a network termination for transmitting cells to the network unit by means of cell slots assigned by the network unit. When the number of consecutive valid cells the network unit receives from the network terminations exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the network unit increases the number of the cell slots to be assigned to the network termination. The system can solve a problem of a conventional system in that it is unavoidable that a cell transfer delay and a bursting tendency of cells are statistically increased.
