Traffic engineering and admission control schemes for QoS support over the Internet share the hypothesis that offered traffic must be policed. Recently, measurement-based techniques have been proposed as effective QoS-guarantee mechanisms. For them, a key element is a thorough understanding of the characteristics of regulated traffic. In this paper, we present an analysis of the traffic output process for a leaky-bucket-regulated voice sources with silence suppression, which would be a prime candidate for VoIP service. Specifically, we present a procedure for calculating the mean and the variance of the amount of regulated traffic as a function of the measurement period. We evaluate the quality of our results via simulation.

Abstract
Traffic engineering and admission control schemes for QoS support over the Internet share the hypothesis that offered traffic must be policed. Recently, measurement-based techniques have been proposed as effective QoS-guarantee mechanisms. For them, a key element is a thorough understanding of the characteristics of regulated traffic. In this paper, we present an analysis of the traffic output process for a leaky-bucket-regulated voice sources with silence suppression, which would be a prime candidate for VoIP service. Specifically, we present a procedure for calculating the mean and the variance of the amount of regulated traffic as a function of the measurement period. We evaluate the quality of our results via simulation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
