This paper proposes the Stabilized (DGRED) method for congestion detection at the router buffer. This method aims to stabilize the average queue length between allocated minthre_shold and doublemaxthre_shold positions to increase the network performance. The SDGRED method is simulated and compared with Gentle Random Early Detection (GRED) and Dynamic GRED active queue management methods. This comparison is built on different important measures, such as dropping probability, throughput, average delay, packet loss, and mean queue length for packets. The evaluation aims to identify which method presents better simulation performance measurement results when non-congestion or congestion situations occur at the router buffers in congestion control. The results show that at high packet arrival probability, the proposed algorithm helps provide lesser queue length values, delayed time, and packet loss compared with current methods. Furthermore, SDGRED generates adequate throughput at high packet arrival probability.
