19. A method of resource management in a data transmission system, comprising:
-
initializing a timer in accordance with a first variable and a second variable;
receiving a data packet;
determining a current timer value of the timer upon receiving the data packet;
determining a through-put timer value based on at least the first variable, a target average packet inter-arrival time, and the current timer value;
calculating a comparison value based on at least the timer, the locality margin timer value, and the current timer value; and
choosing a packet-driven timer value in accordance with the comparison value; and
updating the timer using the smaller value of the through-put timer value and the packet-driven timer value.
