ABSTRACT:
A method and system are presented for determining the loading and capacity on a variable capacity channel by measuring the times at which packets are enqueued for transmission, and have their transmission completed, or by measuring these times in addition to the arrival times of the packets. The times may be measured using a device driver or other operating system component. The measurement may be performed in a centralized or distributed fashion for multi-access or point to point channels.
