The basic idea behind an active queue management (AQM) is to sense the congestion level within the network and inform the packet sources about, so that they reduce their sending rate. In literature a lot off mechanisms of AQM are studied.…

Active queue management (AQM) drops packets early in the growth of a queue, to prevent a capacity-seeking sender (e.g. TCP) from keeping the buffer full. An AQM can mark instead of dropping packets if they indicate support for explicit…

The behaviour of the TCP AIMD algorithm is known to cause queue length oscillations when congestion occurs at a router output link. Indeed, due to these queueing variations, end-to-end applications experience large delay jitter. Many…
