A new method based on two freedom-degree PD-P flow rate controller for congestion control in computer networks

摘要

The rate-based feedback PD-P controller of two freedom-degrees is proposed for the congestion control in computer networks to improve the abilities against disturbance. Moreover, the Dahlin algorithm is used for setting the controller to overcome the adverse effect caused by the propagation delay effectively. The research results show that the proposed scheme not only can make sources respond to the changes of network state more quickly, but also has a good robustness against estimated error of the delay. Then the packet queue level in buffer will be stabilized on the set-point quickly, and the delay and its jitter of the packet queuing will also become smaller. Besides, the flexible bandwidth allotment can be obtained by setting the weight coefficients.
