Abstract
Variable bit rate (VBR) coding techniques have received great research interest as very promising tools for transmitting bursty multimedia traffic with low bandwidth requirements over a communication link. Statistically multiplexing the multimedia bursty traffic is a very efficient method of maximizing the utilization of the link capacity. The application of computer simulation techniques in analyzing a rate-based access control scheme for multimedia traffic such as voice traffic is discussed. The control scheme regulates the packetized bursty traffic at the user network interface of the link. Using a suitable congestion measure, namely, the multiplexer buffer length, the scheme dynamically controls the arrival rate by switching the coder to a different compression ratio (i.e., changing the coding rate). VBR coding methods can be adaptively adjusted to transmit at a lower rate with very little degradation in the voice quality. Reported results prove that the scheme greatly improves the link performance, in terms of reducing the probability of call blocking and enhancing the statistical multiplexing gain.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
