An Implicit Proactive Admission Control for Both Real Time and Elastic Flows
Lakshmanan Senthilkumar, Venkadachalam Sankaranarayanan · 2009
The paper extends our proposed admission control scheme which was designed to handle only real time UDP flows to also accommodate elastic TCP flows in the network. The proposed implicit proactive admission control technique operates by reserving network resources on a proactive manner. The blocking probability measure is used as a flow admission decision parameter. Effectiveness of the proposed admission control scheme is shown here through a detailed simulation. The scheme is found to be robust for different aggregates of UDP and TCP traffic flows. The technique also results in a better bottleneck link utilization at a comparatively lower overhead traffic.
