ABSTRACT:
A method of detecting fractional channels in a telecommunications circuit. A non-idle data rate is measured for each channel in the telecommunications circuit. Channels having matching non-idle data rates are grouped into sets. Non-idle data rates are measured again for the channels within each set. In each set, any channels having non-matching non-idle data rates (with a small predetermined range of permissible variability) are eliminated. The measurement for each set is repeated multiple times. Each remaining set has channels that have substantially identical non-idle data rates over multiple time periods and each remaining set is assumed to constitute a fractional channel. Non-idle data rates are measured by counting non-idle octets over a fixed period of time, or by measuring throughput (non-idle octets per second) or by measuring utilization (throughput/capacity).
