通信辭彙：
飽和容量 （saturation throughput）
which is a fundamental performance figure defined as the limit reached by the system throughput as the offered load increases, and it represents the maximum load that the system can carry in stable conditions (as in most random access protocols, the maximum throughput may be greater than the saturation one, but it is of no practical importance as not sustainable for “long” time—see a general discussion about stability。
飽和容量表示的是：隨著負載的增加，系統吞吐量的一種極限表達形式，表示了系統在穩定狀態的最大的負載。
在大多數的隨機接入協定中，最大吞吐量可能會比飽和吞吐量大，但是最大吞吐量對於長期來說沒有什麼實際意義。
