Active queue management algorithm considering queue and load states

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new AQM algorithm that considers both the average queue length and the estimated packet arrival rate together in order to detect and control incipient congestion. It predicts the average queue length and controls it to maintain a certain reference value to achieve high link utilization and low queueing delay. Simulation results confirm the stability of our proposed algorithm under various network environments and show its performance advantages over other competitive AQM algorithms
