Abstract

An embodiment includes an admission control program of a router in a transmission system. A router includes a dither signal (a periodic timing signal) at a frequency causing the IP flow to organize into a periodic and deterministic pattern. The frequency is selected to maximize IP flow rate. Multiple, independent input paths may be combined into a single output path using the dither signal to regulate when the paths are alternately combined into the single output path.
