This paper proposes an implementation methodology of the rate limiting method and the class-based bandwidth management for the gigabit-powered network processor, which are used on general purpose or ASIC systems in order to efficiently manage network bandwidth. Implementation and experiments are done on Intel's IXP1200 network processor. The result shows the accuracy of limited bandwidth and settling time of the estimator against the dynamic traffic rate. Through the results, this paper proves the proposed method and implementation properly work as expected.

A real-time frame-layer rate control algorithm with a token bucket traffic shaper is proposed for minimizing video duality variation. The proposed rate control method uses a non-iterative optimization method for low computational complexity, and performs bit allocation at the frame level to minimize variation in distortion between frames. In order to reduce the quality fluctuation, we use a sliding window scheme which does not require the pre-analysis process. Therefore, the proposed algorithm does not produce the delay from encoding, and is suitable for real-time low-complexity video encoder. Experimental results indicate that the proposed control method provides better PSNR performance than the existing rate control method.

Ethernet-PON is an emerging access network technology that provides a low-cost method of deploying optical access lines between OLT and ONUs. It has a point-to-multipoint and multipoint-to-point architecture in downstream and upstream direction, respectively. Therefore, downstream packets are broadcast from an OLT toward all ONUs sithout collision. On the other hand, since alt ONUs share a common channel, the collision may be occurred for the upstream transmission. Therefore, earlier efforts on Ethernet-PON have been concentrated on an upstream MAC protocol to avoid collision. But it is needed to control downstream traffic in practical access network, where the network provider limits available bandwidth according to the number of users. In this paper, we propose a traffic control scheme for supporting the fairness of the downstream bandwidth. The objective of this algorithm is to guarantee the fairness of ONUs while maintaining good performance. In order to do this, we define the service probability that considers the past traffic information for downstream, the number of tokens and the relative size of negotiated bandwidth. We develop the simulation model for Ethernet-PON to evaluate the rate-limiting algorithm by using AWESIM. Some results are evaluated and analyzed in terms of defined fairness factor, delay and dropping rate under various scenario.

CDP(handoff Call Dropping Probability) and CBP(new Call Blocking Probability) have been used as two important call level QoS parameters in cellular mobile communications. But, many methods to reduce CDP without considering CBP have been studied, and hand-off call priority scheme has been introduced. But the use of hand-off call priority scheme increases CBP and decreases channel utilization rate depending on the number of reserved channel for priority. In this paper, we propose a CAC(Call Admission Control) algorithm with overflow and preemption to solve the problem caused by considering CDP and CBP in calculation of the number of channel reserved. The problem is the increase of CDP as the traffic load increases. In our CAC algorithm, hand-off call is permitted to use(overflow) unreserved and unused channel if there is no reserved and unused channel, and new call is permitted to use(preemption) the channel overflowed by hand-off call if there is no unreserved and unused channel. This mechanism of calculation of the number of reserved channel and CAC algorithm is expected to increase channel utilization rate, and can be applied to media-based QoS provision in cellular mobile communications.
