In ATM network there exist several traffics according to QoS, such as CBR, rt-VBR, nrt-VBR, UBR, and ABR. Many studies have done at the traffic management of ABR which uses the unused network bandwidth. Many flow control mechanisms have proposed to use efficiently the unused bandwidth. In TMWG(Traffic Management Working Group) of ATM Forum, there exist rate-based, credit-based, and mixture of them to manage flow control of ABR traffic. Among these, rate-based mechanisms adopted as standard because it is flexible and also makes it possible to implement ATM switch with low price and high capacity. In this paper, we study the switch that uses EFCI, ER and VS/VD(Virtual Source/Virtual Destination) with rate-based mechanism. Instead of using queue threshold, we propose a new algorithm which uses bandwidth threshold of input stage of switch, and manages efficiently ABR traffic with EPRCA algorithm.

One of the most important matters in designing network and realizing service, is to grip on the traffic characteristics. Conventional traffic prediction and analysis used the models which based on the Poisson or Markovian. Recently, experimental research on the LAN, WAN and VBR traffic properties have been pointed rut that they weren't able to display actual real traffic specificities because the models based on the Poisson assumption had been underestimated the long range dependency of network traffic and self-similar peculiarities, it has been lately presented that the new approach method using self-similarity characteristics as similar as the real traffic models. Therefore, in this paper, we generated self-similar data traffic like real traffic as background load. On the existing ABR congestion control algorithm, we analyzed by classify into ACR, buffer utilization. cell drop rate, transmission throughput with the representative EFCI, ERICA, EPRCA and NIST twitch algorithm to show the efficient reaction about the burst traffic.
