Bandwidth reservation distinguishes time-division multiplexing from statistical multiplexing such as statistical time division multiplexing.
2.
In best-effort statistical multiplexing, a first-come first-served ( FCFS ) scheduling policy is often used.
3.
Statistical multiplexing ensures that slots will not be wasted ( whereas TDM can waste slots ).
4.
This is a form of bandwidth management, and is essentially the same thing as statistical multiplexing.
5.
Due to its random character it can be categorised as statistical multiplexing methods, making it possible to provide dynamic bandwidth allocation.
6.
Called " statistical multiplexing, " a sports program can use bandwidth not used by a static talking-heads show on that transponder.
7.
Alternatively the wavelengths can be used collectively through statistical multiplexing to provide efficient wavelength utilization and lower delays experienced by the ONUs.
8.
In digital radio systems, several variable bit-rate data streams are multiplexed together to a fixed bitrate transport stream by means of statistical multiplexing.
9.
OFDMA can be seen as an alternative to combining OFDM with time division multiple access ( TDMA ) or time-domain statistical multiplexing communication.
10.
In packet-switched computer networks and other statistical multiplexing, the notion of a "'scheduling algorithm "'is used as an alternative to first-come first-served queuing of data packets.
