Abstract
This paper models and evaluates the AAL multiplexer to analyze AAL protocol in ATM networks. We consider an AAL multiplexer in which a single periodically determinsitic CBR traffic stream and several variable size bursty background traffic streams are multiplexed and one ATM cell stream goes out. We model the AAL multiplexer as a B/sup X/ + D/D/1/K queue and analyze this queueing system. We represent various performance measures such as loss probability and waiting time in the basis of cell and packet.
