The Performance of Endpoint Admission Control Based on Packet Loss

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 2811))

Abstract

Endpoint admission control solutions, based on probing a transmission path, have been proposed to meet quality requirements of audio-visual applications with little support from routers. In this paper we present a mathematical analysis of a probe–based admission control solution, where flows are accepted or rejected based on the packet–loss statistics in the probe stream. The analysis relates system performance to design parameters and the experienced probe packet loss probability to the packet loss pro bability of accepted flows.
