A Choice of Optimal Packet Dropping Function for Active Queue Management

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 79))

Abstract

Algorithms of queue management in IP routers determine which packet should be deleted when necessary. The article investigates the influence of packet rejection probability function on the performance, i.e. response time for in case NLRED queues. For standard NLRED the linear packet dropping function is replaced by a quadratic function. Solution presented in this article based on orthogonal polynomials. Depending on a particular criterion of optimization a proper non-linear function may be chosen, but using averaged criterion leads up to choose the linear one as an optimal one.
