Rate-Based Congestion Controllers for High-Speed Computer Networks

Adaptive Congestion Control in ATM Networks

“…Another important factor is the unavoidable delay of closed loop systems in high speed links such as satellite ATM networks or IP ATM. The Round Trip Time (RTT) delay is the time from the moment control information is sent to the source until an appropriate action takes place, and is the source of instability in simple control systems [3]. In this paper, a direct minimum variance self tuning regulator is proposed to be used with an online recursive least squares algorithm to estimate the appropriate control parameters and to adaptively regulate the queue length to the nominal value.…”
