CONGESTION CONTROL BASED ON SLIDING MODE CONTROL AND SCHEDULING WITH PRIORITIZED QUEUING FOR WIRELESS NETWORKS

Abstract

The application of sliding mode control in wireless network is used for considering the joint congestion control and scheduling. Incorporating dual decomposition enables the joint congestion control and scheduling problem to be considered separately. The communication among these two sub problems is given by the lagrangian price value. Based on the utility optimization of network the congestion control performance for queues can be improved using sliding mode based congestion controller. Buffers on network devices are managed with various queuing techniques. Properly managed queues can minimize dropped packets and network congestion, as well as improve network performance. Thus, the queuing structure of CBWFQ (Class Based Weighted Fair Queuing) and strict Priority is combined so that the packets are classified into different classes and priorities are given to these classes, where the higher priority are given to delay sensitive packets and are scheduled effectively.
