Abstract
Active Queue Management (AQM) techniques have been proposed to support scenarios with many connections sharing the same bottleneck. The basic idea is that a smart management of the bottleneck queue can avoid the saturation of the link and ensure a smoother use of the available bandwidth. This is generally achieved by exploiting the flux control mechanism of TCP and its behavior in case of packet losses or other explicit notifications. In this paper we consider classic and innovative AQM techniques and analyse their performance under different scenarios through the use of mean field models.
