Application of ATM traffic analysis techniques in the field of digital signal processing

Abstract

This paper describes the methodology that utilises some of the ATM traffic analysis techniques in the performance analysis of multichannel digital signal processing (DSP) systems. The analysed multichannel DSP systems employ statistical multiplexing in order to improve the DSP resource utilisation. A case study is used to illustrate the application of the proposed methodology. Performance of the studied system was estimated and it was shown that a significant efficiency gain may be achieved over the DSP systems that do not utilise statistical multiplexing of their resources.
