Abstract

Most high-speed links do not have adequate buffering and as a result Active Queue Management (AQM) schemes that utilize queue size information for congestion control cannot be effectively applied on these links. A high-speed link will, typically, have small buffers in relation to the bandwidth-delay product of the link. In this paper we argue that rate-based AQM schemes be used for such links. The goal here is to match the aggregate rate of the active TCP connections to the available capacity while maintaining minimal queue size and high link utilization. The AQM scheme described here employs a Proportional–Integral (PI) control strategy and explicitly takes into account the time delay in the control process. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
