Processor resource control system and method for client terminal equipment

Abstract

The invention relates to a processor resource control system for client terminal equipment. When a voice communication request of a user is received, a current resource utilization rate of a processor of client terminal equipment is obtained and whether the current resource utilization rate of the processor is at a high level is determined. If so, the system establishes two virtual channels to carry out shunting on a network bandwidth of the client terminal equipment, wherein one virtual channel is used for establishing voice communication and the other one is used for transmitting packets with other types. Therefore, other packets entering the client terminal equipment are limited, so that enough processor resources are left for voice data processing in the voice communication. In addition, the invention also provides a processor resource control method for client terminal equipment. With the system and the method, the voice communication quality is ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to processor resource management and control, in particular to a processor resource management and control system and method for client terminal equipment. Background technique [0002] Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), such as gateways, routers or switches, can be used to interconnect communication devices such as computers or mobile phones with the network. After the user uses the client terminal equipment to connect the communication equipment to the network, it can realize voice communication with external communication equipment, such as VoIP voice communication. In order to save hardware costs, the DSP (Digital Signal Processing, Digital Signal Processing) chip on the customer terminal equipment that digitizes analog signals such as voice has been gradually replaced by software programs (software DSP). Since the software DSP needs to share processor (CPU) resources with other applications on the client terminal devi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Since the software DSP needs to share processor (CPU) resources with other applications on the client terminal device, if the user is establishing a VoIP voice communication, the client terminal device itself is performing a large number of tasks such as packet conversion and transmission (such as executing FTP download task), a large amount of processor resources of the client terminal device will be occupied to handle the packet conversion and transmission tasks, which may cause the software DSP to be unable to allocate enough processor resources to process the established voice communication, thereby affecting the quality of communication
