Selecting the intersegment interval for TCP in telecomms networks using fuzzy inference system

摘要

One of the most important developments of Telecommunications networks in the last few years has been centered around the provision of resources for streamed and real-time data. Since it is necessary to guarantee the delivery of packets then a reliable Transport Protocol is required i.e. TCP. However TCP has a number of parameters that need to be configured for different services to optimize the delivery of packets. Selection of values for these parameters is vital since they can affect the overall performance of the network. Intersegment Interval is such a parameter and this paper investigates of selecting this value based using a fuzzy interference approach. A telecommunications network has been simulated in Matlab and the results obtained have been presented in this paper.
