Wireless communications network with allocation management of a section of bandwidth reserved for the transmission of priority requests to establish a link

摘要

A wireless communications network (WLAN) comprises i) an access point (AP) coupled to a call server (ER) connected to at least one remote communications network (PTN, PDN), ii) means of reservation (MR) responsible for reserving a section of the communication bandwidth of the wireless network (WLAN) for the transmission of requests to establish a link with one of the remote networks, meeting at least one of the priority criteria selected, iii) processing means (PM) responsible for determining if a request to establish a link meets each priority criterion selected, and if so to associate to said request an authorization to use the reserved section, and iv) management means (MM) responsible, when they receive a request associated to an authorization of use, for determining the necessary resources to establish the required link, and if said necessary resources are still available within the network, in order to, if so, allocate the determined necessary resources to the establishment of the required link.
