Abstract
Congestion control in TCP/AQM networks is expected to perform well for a wide-range of conditions, but recent advances in modeling and analysis indicate that present AQM (active queue management) schemes need an extra dose of adaptability to cope. The paper answers the call and proposes a self-tuning structure wherein AQM parameters are automatically tuned in response to on-line estimation of link capacity and traffic load. This approach is applicable to any AQM scheme that is parameterizable in terms of link capacity and TCP load. We describe this self-tuning structure, illustrate its application to PI (proportional-integral) and RED (random early detection) AQMs, provide stability analysis, and conduct ns simulations to compare with both fixed AQM schemes and the recently proposed adaptive RED.
