In most of the packet-oriented services, the higher protocol layers recover the corrupted or lost packets by retransmission. Under such an error recovery mechanism, when an intermediate node has discarded a cell, all the following cells associated with the same packet is not worth transmitting; because all the cells of the lost packet will be retransmitted. If the switching node removes those cells, the traffic beyond the congestion point must be reduced. We build a queueing model and investigate the performance characteristics of our congestion control scheme via simulation. As compared to the previously proposed congestion control scheme, our scheme provides a better performance.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":158681,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ICCS '94","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130548448","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A VP combination scheme defined by Chan and Tsang (see Proc. of ICCCN 94, San Francisco 11-14 Sept. 1994) is a way to assign traffic classes to different VPs for satisfying all the QOS requirements. It is also referred to as static bandwidth allocation schemes which may not have good utilization of network resources because of not sharing the bandwidth among the VPs. Another approach that makes use of some priority handling mechanism and allows the VP bandwidth to be shared among the VPs can satisfy the different QOS requirements while maintaining efficient network use. This scheme is referred to as dynamic bandwidth allocation schemes. Numerical results of the dynamic schemes are compared to that of the static schemes to evaluate their performance difference (i.e., the total capacity and the total buffer required).<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":158681,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ICCS '94","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132049593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Forward error correction (FEC) techniques have been proposed for cell loss recovery but are still limited because congestion cell loss is hard to predict meaningfully. We propose a protocol based on an adaptive forward error correction (AFEC) mechanism. The protocol has been designed especially for minimizing the effect of transmission delays, and to fulfil the delay constraints of services to be provided. The proposed coding is examined for point-to-multipoint communications, and handles cells rather than messages to increase the efficiency.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":158681,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ICCS '94","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121564585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The impedance matrix element is separated into a singularity term and a perturbation term. To save computing time, an interpolation technique is applied to the perturbation term. Numerical results show that a traveling wave with some decay is dominant in the current distribution on the grid wire. Calculations based on the obtained current distribution reveal that the radiation beam direction moves toward the antenna plane, as the frequency decreases. The gain is found to be lower than that for a grid array antenna on an air substrate.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":158681,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ICCS '94","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133227752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
