Retransmissions on the DLC layer are essential to ABR service providing the low CLR (cell loss ratio) over the unreliable wireless channel with high bit error rate. In the wireless ATM, the DLC layer below ATM layer performs the retransmission and reordering of the cells to recover the cell loss over the wireless channel and by doing so, the effect of the wireless channel characteristics with high bit error rate can be minimized on the ATM layer which is designed under the assumption of the low bit error rate. We propose, in this paper, the schemes to reflect the changes of the transmission rate over the wireless channel on the ABR rate control. Proposed scheme can control the source rate to the changes of the transmission rate over the wireless channel and reduce the required buffer size in the AP (access point). In the simulation, we assume that the DLC layer can inform the ATM layer of the wireless channel quality as good or bad. Our simulation results show that the proposed schemes require the smaller buffer size compared with the existing scheme, enhanced dynamic max rate control algorithm (EDMRCA). It is also shown that the scheme with the intelligent DLC which adjusts the rate to the wireless channel quality not only provides the low CLR with smaller buffer requirement but also improves the throughput by utilizing the wireless bandwidth more efficiently.

This paper compares the performance of feedback consolidation algorithms with or without a fast overload indication function which has been recently proposed in the ATM Forum for multicast ABR (Available Bit Rate) services in ATM networks. We use the performance criteria such as the ACR (Allowed Cell Rate) of a source, queue length at a switch, link utilization, fairness, and BRM (Backward Resource Management) cell overhead. Simulation results show that performance of the feedback consolidation algorithms with a fast overload indication function can be improved sign.ificantly than that of algorithms without this function in terms of ramp-down delay, particularly in initial start-up period or under a severe overload situation. The fast overload indication function can be combined with any feedback consolidation algorithm, whereas its performance is highly dependent on an underlying basic feedback consolidation algorithm.

Asynchronous transfer mode is flexible to support multimedia communication services using asynchronous time-sharing and statistical multimedia techniques to the existing data communication area, ATM ABR service controls network traffic using feedback information on the network congestion situation in order to guarantee the demanded service qualities and the available cell rates, In this paper we apply the control method using queue length prediction to the formation of feedback information for more efficient ABR traffic control. If backward node receive the longer delayed feedback information on the impending congestion, the switch can be already congested from the uncontrolled arriving traffic and the fluctuation of queue length can be inefficiently high in the continuing time intervals, The feedback control method proposed in this paper predicts the queue length in the switch using the slope of queue length prediction function and queue length changes in time-series, The predicted congestion information is backward to the node, NLMS and neural network are used as the predictive control functions, and they are compared from performance on the queue length prediction. Simulation results show the efficiency of the proposed method compared to the feedback control method without the prediction, Therefore, we conclude that the efficient congestion and stability of the queue length controls are possible using the prediction scheme that can resolve the problems caused from the longer delays of the feedback information.

초고속 인터넷의 멀티미디어 서비스 통합에 대한 해결책으로 ATM 네트워크 기술이 널리 사용되고 있다. ATM 서비스를 기반으로 하는 인터넷 프로토콜에서는 ATM 층에서 하나의 셀 손실은 전체 패킷 손실을 초래하여 TCP의 성능이 저하된다. 따라서 혼잡 시 패킷의 손실을 줄이기 위해 UBR 서비스에서는 EPD 방식이, ABR 서비스에서는 ER 방식이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는, UBR과 ABR 스위치 방식에 빠른 재전송과 회복(FRR)과 Nagle 알고리즘의 사용이 성능향상에 미치는 영향을 TCP 파라미터인 MTU 크기와 LAN 또는 WAN 환경에서 시뮬레이션 평가하였다.

초고속통신의 실현과 다양한 멀티미디어 서비스를 위한 해결책으로서 ATM이 널리 사용되고 있다. TCP가 ATM망의 ABR/UBR 서비스를 사용할 때, ABR/UBR 제어방식과 TCP 흐름제어 사이의 서로 다른 동작 때문에 TCP 파라미터 값이 TCP층의 성능뿐만 아니라 ATM 층에도 영향을 미쳐 처리율과 공정성의 성능저하를 가져온다. 본 논문에서는 효과적인 처리율과 공정성의 관점에서 실제 통신망을 고려하여 VBR서비스 상에서의 TCP 트래픽의 성능향상을 위해 효과적인 파라미터 제어운용 방안을 제시하고, 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 개선된 높은 처리율과 공정성을 나타내었다.

In this paper, we proposed the MAC protocol of APON supporting multi-class traffic such as CBBUVBR, ABR, UBR, to guarantee the required QoS of each service. For this, we analyze the performance of variousrequest mechanisms and employee the different request mechanism for each traffic classes. Upstream anddownstream frame structures to minimize transmission overhead are proposed based on our request mechanism.The proposed MAC protocol applies the different priority to permit distribution process. CBBWBR traffic, withthe stringent requirements on CDV or delay, is allocated prior to any other class. ABR traffic, which hasnon-strict CDV or delay criteria, uses flexibly the available bandwidth but ensures a minimum cell rate (MCR).UBR traffic is allocated with lowest priority for the remaining capacity. The performance of proposed protocol isevaluated in terms of transfer delay and 1-point CDV with various offered load. The result of simulation showsthat the proposed protocol guarantees the required QoS of the corresponding category, while making use of theavailable resources in both an efficient and dynamical way.

A network of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) will be required to carry the traffics(CVR, VBR, UBR, ABR) generated by a wide range of services. The algorithm of WRR cell multiplexing is designed to serve no only CBR, VBR traffic but also ABR, UBR traffic in ATM. BSW algorithm was Proposed to carry on manage buffer efficiently at implementing of WRR scheduler. But, BSW a1gorithm cause serious degradation to the weight of each VC and the ratio of scheduler throughput because it allocates more weight than the weight allocated actually in VC and because it could not serve cell if the VC queue is empty. In this paper, we propose the WRR scheduling algorithm of BSW structure which improves the cell service ratio and cell delay. The proposed algorithm is capable of maintaining an allocated VC's weight correctly and decrease of average cell delay by serving other VC cell when empty in each VC queue and increase of cell service ratio as a whole.

Increased network reliability is required as the size of communication network becomes larger and the bandwidth requirement is increasing. And preparing of backup path is required to protect the network from serious network failures in high speed network. In this paper, we construct multiple logical networks on a physical ATM network according to the ATM bearer service category(CBR, rt-VBR, nrt-VBR, ABR, UBR) defined by ATM Forum to support the required QoS(Quality of Service) and to manage the network more efficiently. We use backup path restoration algorithm rather than dynamic restoration to achieve rapid restoration when active path fails and we use fault management function in TINA. We propose a restoration scheme that is suitable for high-speed network.

초고속 통신의 실현과 다양한 멀티미디어 서비스를 위한 TCP/IP 통신의 전송 메카니즘으로서 ATM이 널리 사용되고 있다. TCP층과 ATM층의 상호작용이 TCP층 뿐만 아니라 ATM층에도 영향을 미쳐 처리율과 공정성의 성능이 저하되므로, ATM상의 TCP 트래픽 파라미터, 즉 TG(timer granularity)와 윈도우 크기를 적절하게 조정함으로써 TCP 흐름제어가 ABR 율제어와 상호작용하지 않는다. 그 결과로 상호작용의 영향을 최소화할 수 있으며, TCP의성능향상을 가져올 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 윈도우 크기와 TG와 같은 TCP 파라미터를 조절하여 VBR서비스상에서의 TCP 트랙픽의 성능평가를 통해 높은 처리율과 공정성을 나타내었다.
