Method, system and routing device for scheduling control of multi-link devices
By generating a global bitmap index and calculating resource scheduling values, the problem of insufficient inter-link arbitration in multi-link device scenarios of WiFi7 routers is solved, realizing fair scheduling between links and efficient event processing, thereby improving resource utilization and event completion rate.

AI Technical Summary
Existing WiFi 7 routers lack an effective inter-link arbitration mechanism in MLO scenarios with multiple links. This can lead to one link monopolizing the router's processing resources due to sudden traffic surges, while events on another link accumulate and expire. Furthermore, the lack of consideration for differences in event types results in frequent inter-link context switching, impacting resource processing efficiency.
By obtaining the link characteristic values of each connection link to generate a global bitmap index, and combining the virtual runtime and the number of ready events to calculate the resource scheduling value, effective arbitration between links is achieved, and batch scheduling is performed using the event deadline to reduce context switching.
It improves the resource processing efficiency of routing devices, reduces frequent switching between links, and enhances resource utilization and event completion rate.
