E ective Frequency Range of Rate-Based Closed-Loop Congestion Control for ABR Service

چکیده
The Available Bit Rate (ABR) service class has been de ned by the ATM Forum. Closed-loop ratebased congestion control has been adopted by the ATM Forum as the standard approach for supporting ABR service in ATM networks. This paper examines congestion control mechanisms for ABR service and presents fundamental performance results for rate-based tra c management schemes under varying available bandwidth conditions. We show the frequency range where a rate-based congestion control scheme can operate e ectively. Our results contribute to the fundamental understanding of closed-loop tra c management mechanisms for ABR service and provide guidelines for the future development of e ective congestion control algorithms.

Performance of Abr Flow Control Schemes under Varying Network Conditions with Transient Analysis
This paper considers fundamental performance issues of closed-loop tra c management for ABR service. ABR service is designed to utilize network resource e ciently by dynamically adjusting each connection's transmission rate. ABR ow control protocols attempt to achieve this objective by estimating available network bandwidth and convey this information to the source. However, it is not clear how...

متن کاملDesign of Rate-based Congestion Control Scheme for MPEG Video Transmission in ATM Networks
In this paper, we investigate MPEG video transmission over Available Bit Rate (ABR) service. It requires small cell delay variation and non-trivial Minimum Cell Rate (MCR) to guarantee quality of service (QoS). Existing ABR congestion control schemes cannot meet the requirements since they are designed for data applications. We propose a closed-loop rate-based congestion control scheme called E...
