The experimental network for the project of interconnecting CATV in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan started from March, 1998. In this project, three CATV companies in Hanshin area, Kobe, Nishinomiya and Amagasaki are connected serially with optical fiber via ATM switches. In this network, the jitter process of MPEG2 stream is investigated experimentally. In addition, the simulation model is also developed for the performance evaluation of the future extended network. Recently, it was reported that the cell stream of our experimental network exhibits the self-similar nature over the several time-scales. In this paper, we construct the simulation model of the testbed network focusing on the generation of self-similar traffic, and investigate the relation between the self-similar traffic and the jitter of MPEG2 cells.
