Rush hour

The busy hour ( HVStd , Eng .: busy hour ) is a term that in the queuing theory , especially when they are used in the telecommunications , the traffic theory is used. It denotes a time segment of four consecutive quarter hours in which the traffic volume under consideration, for example the traffic value, is at its maximum. The measurement takes place over several days, whereby the measured values are summarized and an average value is formed. The rush hour has no specific timing. It is used to determine a service that should be decisive for the expansion of the system or the bundle . In addition, the bundle rush hour (BHVStd) is defined as the actual period of 60 consecutive minutes with the highest traffic value. In road traffic , the rush hour is also known as “rush hour”.
