Performance Modeling of Selected AQM Mechanisms in TCP/IP Network

Abstract

Algorithms of queue management in IP routers determine which packet should be deleted when necessary. The active queue management, recommended by IETF, enhances the efficiency of transfers and cooperate with TCP congestion window mechanism in adapting the flows intensity to the congestion in a network. Nowadays, a lot of Internet applications use UDP protocol to transport the data. In the article we analyze the impact of increased UDP traffic on Active Queue Management. The article also investigates the influence of the way packets are chosen to be dropped (end of the queue, head of the queue) on the performance, i.e. response time in case of RED.
