Abstract
A method for traffic management and resource allocation on a shared access network including estimating a bandwidth capacity of a gateway, determining a demand rate of an IP gateway, allocating bandwidth to the IP gateway based on the demand rate, traffic priority, or traffic weighting, allocating bandwidth to the IP gateway in advance of demand when excess bandwidth is available, scheduling traffic at the IP gateway based on traffic priority, service plan of a VSAT, or physical layer properties of the VSAT, performing priority queue servicing of traffic at a gateway using a real time traffic priority queue, a non-real time traffic priority queue, two or more modulation and coding queue groups, and a code block queue.
