Abstract
An overbooking according to the ratios of the measuring values of transferred aggregated traffic is determined according to the face values of aggregated transferred traffic. The ratios of measuring values in relation to face values are weighted according to the variable of either the measuring value or the face value such that with smaller measuring values and/or face values the ratios thereof have a slightly lower effect on the determination of overbooking than the ratios of greater measuring values and face values in relation to each other. Systematic access for the improved use of wave bands is provided. Representative situations, wherein a high charge of the wave band is predominant, are taken into account to a greater extent during the determination of the overbooking factor than by phases characterized by a small load.

21. A method for improving utilization of a link for transferring traffic in a communication network, comprising:
-
providing an access control for data traffic of at least one traffic class to be transferred over the link via a limit for a total data traffic to be transferred over the link;
overbooking of the link via the access control, the overbooking specified in accordance with a ratio of a measured value of the total data traffic transferred over the link to a nominal value of the total data traffic to transfer over the link; and
weighting a plurality of ratios in accordance with the size of either the measured value or of the nominal value for the respective ratio, wherein the ratio of a smaller measured value to the nominal value has a less significant effect on the specification of the overbooking than the ration of a larger measure value to the nominal value.

22. A method for improving the utilization of a communication network formed by nodes, comprising:
-
providing an access control for data traffic of at least one traffic class to be transferred over the link, wherein the access control is provided by the node; and
specifying an overbooking factor in accordance with a ratio of a measured value of a transferred aggregated traffic to a nominal value of aggregated traffic that is to be transferred; and
weighting a plurality of ratios in accordance with the size of either the measured value or of the nominal value for the respective ratio, wherein the ratio of a smaller measured value to the nominal value has a less significant effect on the specification of the overbooking than the ration of a larger measure value to the nominal value. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)
