Although, the proposed model is so simple from the routers side, it is somehow complex from the host side due to the input analyzing process. On the other hand, the QBone (quality of service backbone) model moves the complexity to the router side. Practically, the QBone model does not face any success because most of the users are not willing to pay much money to have voice sessions across the Internet. So, the proposed model not only guarantees the voice quality but also saves the network resources (up to 74% of the consumed bandwidth).","PeriodicalId":401041,"journal":{"name":"The 8th International Conference on Communication Systems, 2002.

Based on the original multi-leaky-bucket modeling method (MLB), DTMLB parameterizes the actual traffic cumulative function instead of the empirical envelope function used by MLB. Moreover, DTMLB incorporates different delay tolerance characteristics among I-frames, P-frames, and B-frames of video to improve the overall bandwidth utilization. Simulation results show that DTMLB provides higher modeling accuracy and higher bandwidth utilization than the MLB and the peak rate modeling methods do. Furthermore, in our simulations, DTMLB generates the least burst traffic into the subsequent nodes of networks among all three methods tested.","PeriodicalId":401041,"journal":{"name":"The 8th International Conference on Communication Systems, 2002.

In terms of VDSL performance parameters such as bit rate, the optimized cancellation scheme recovers almost totally the performance degradation due to RFI.","PeriodicalId":401041,"journal":{"name":"The 8th International Conference on Communication Systems, 2002.

It automatically adjusts the amount of reserved resources, while the required QoS are also guaranteed.

This is attributed to the fact that wireless systems have become more reliable, compact and easy to develop than ever before, leading to a well-perceived ubiquity. Most manufacturers do not document the error related performance and characteristics of their devices, thus entailing a detailed analysis by the developer or the user. We highlight tests to measure the bit error related performance of these new generation transceivers, with special emphasis on the TRF 6900A transceiver from Texas Instruments, a popular binary FSK (frequency shift keying) device. The test bed consists of a wireless modem based on the transceiver, and a personal computer executing a 'C' language code for baseband control and data source-sink, in order to test the device in various configurations and conditions. Our test analyses bit error rate and tries to highlight its relationship to various parameters such as attenuation, interference, occlusions, and modulation index, which in turn helps to evaluate the performance of a wireless device. This method can be easily extended to evaluate various other similar wireless transceivers offered in the market.","PeriodicalId":401041,"journal":{"name":"The 8th International Conference on Communication Systems, 2002.

However, networks with wireless and other lossy links also suffer from significant losses due to bit errors and handoffs. TCP interprets these delays and losses as signs of network congestion and responds to all these losses by invoking congestion control and avoidance algorithms, resulting in degraded end-to-end performance in wireless and lossy systems. Most of the existing results of TCP for wireless networks are either take care of high bit error rate (BER) at the wireless links or the frequent handoffs and disconnections. This paper presents an integrated TCP mechanism to be used in mobile environments. It takes care of random bit errors on the wireless link, the congestion in the network and typical handoffs; in a cellular network scenario without violating end-to-end semantics.","PeriodicalId":401041,"journal":{"name":"The 8th International Conference on Communication Systems, 2002.

If a service provider wants the dynamic provisioning or better bandwidth guarantee, signaling protocol with QoS parameters or admission control method should be deployed in DiffServ network. However, these methods increase the complexity. Therefore, we propose new dynamic provisioning mechanism for admission control in the DiffServ network based on the centralized bandwidth broker and distributed measurement based admission control and movable boundary bandwidth management.","PeriodicalId":401041,"journal":{"name":"The 8th International Conference on Communication Systems, 2002.
