Selective packet dropping policies have been used to reduce congestion and transmission of traffic that would inevitably be retransmitted. Common dropping policies proposed are drop-tail, partial packet discard (PPD), early packet discard (EPD) and their recent variations. However, depending on various circumstances, particularly in multi-hop networking environments, application throughput may ...

The objective of this paper is to determine the minimum system dropping rate (or, equivalently, dropping probability) induced by time division multiple access (TDMA) schemes supporting time-constrained applications with common maximum cell delay tolerance. Expressions are derived for the induced system dropping rate for various TDMA schemes with different overhead and the maximum number of user...

Email: [email protected] Abstra t— A Distributed Dynamic Channel Assignment (DDCA) scheme, entitled UFDMA PDA PC has been developed which incorporates power control and which is designed to substantially reduce call dropping without the need for intra-cell handoffs. It has been shown that the scheme increases capacity by at least a factor of 3 compared with the best previous non power control U...

This paper presents a fuzzy based buffer management scheme that performs buffer allocation and packet dropping for wireless multimedia networks in the context of future generation cellular networks. In this scheme, buffers are allocated to requesting application by using buffer allocation factor and packets are dropped for an application by using dropping factor. A buffer allocation factor for ...

Despite the growth in network capacity of wireless in-home networks, these networks often have insufficient capacity to support multiple simultaneous Audio/Video streams. Unpredictable behavior of these networks results in a drop of video quality for the end-user. A method for reducing the claim of an individual A/V stream on the network capacity is controlled frame dropping. However, controlle...

This paper presents a fuzzy based packet dropping scheme for wireless networks in the context of future generation cellular networks. In this scheme,...
