Routers employ queues to temporarily hold packets when the scheduler cannot immediately process them. Congestion occurs when the arrival rate of packets exceeds the processing capacity, leading to increased queueing delay. Over time, Active…
Congestion in router buffer increases the delay and packet loss. Active Queue Management (AQM) methods are able to detect congestion in early stage and control it by packet dropping. Effective Random Early Detection (ERED) method, among…

Active Queue Management(AQM) is an efficient tool in the network to avoid saturation of the queue by warning the sender that the queue is almost full to reduce its speed before the queue is full. The buffer management schemes focus on space…
