A AQM Model with Multi-Priority and Multi-Receiver for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
Suoping Li, Zhipeng He · 2007
AQM (Active Queue Management) is an effective scheme to enhance congestion control. Most of the mobile networks today use queue management to manage and improve network performance. In this paper, we deploy AQM mechanism in Mobile Ad Hoc networks to manage the packets queue in the network nodes. By modeling a node with multi-receiver in Ad Hoc networks, we develop an analytical model for a multi-server and finite capacity queuing system with AQM mechanisms under multi-classes of traffic. We consider multiple classes of traffic modeled by Poisson arrival and exponentially service processes. It deduced the performance metrics including the average queue length, system throughput, probability of drop packet and the average waiting time. Then, it illustrated the relationship between above metrics and the number of servers. Finally, by demonstrating the effective number of servers, it illuminate that we should deploy appropriate number of servers for a certain condition.
