ABSTRACT:
A system for monitoring a workload for a data content delivery apparatus of a communications network. The delivery apparatus delivers content to mobile users via buffered RF link over a fixed bandwidth. A last router routes the content from the delivery apparatus to RF link buffer(s) for transmission to the users. A monitor determines, from the delivery apparatus, parameters describing the content and determines, from the router, bandwidth utilization via the buffer(s), and reports, to the delivery apparatus, bandwidth available for allocation to the content based on the parameters and the bandwidth utilization. The system tracks overall data transfer rates for the network and provides information that can be used to optimize available bandwidth.
