ABSTRACT:
A computer network uplinking system, method, and computer program product are presented for allocation of network resources. A controller tier includes a controller node100having a processor102, a memory104, and a communication interface106. Also, an uplinking tier includes uplinking nodes108, with a processor110, a memory112, and a communication interface114. The nodes108communicate the controller node100in frames. Current and next frames are represented as K and K+1. The nodes108request reservations from the controller node100based on the data each needs to transmit. The controller node100generates a control signal based on the reservation requests to assign slots of a information subframe of the next frame K+1 to the nodes108based on the priority allocated to the node108and the data each needs to transmit. The nodes108then transmit in their assigned slots.
