ABSTRACT:
In a usage parameter control device for an asynchronous transfer mode communications system, a determination is made as to whether either of the respective storage elements maintaining values for (1) the time of arrival of a cell (TTAand (2) the time value at which the “bucket” will have drained to an empty condition (TTAT) has wrapped relative to the other. The wrap determination is made prior to the comparison between the TTAand TTATvalues which is made in order to determine whether the user is complying with his or her contracted parameters. If one of the storage elements has wrapped relative to the other, the comparison between the TTAand TTATvalues is modified accordingly.
