Recently, the growth of applications and services over high-speed Internet increase, ATM networks as wide area back-bone has been a major solution. The conventional TCP suite is still the standard protocol used to support upper application on current Internet and uses a window based protocol for flow control in the transport layer. When TCP data uses the UBR service in ATM layer, the control method is also buffer management. If a cell is discarded in ATM layer. one whole packet of TCP will be lost. Which is responsible for most TCP performance degradation and do not offer sufficiently QoS. To solve this problem, Several dropping strategies, such as Tail Drop, EPD, PPO, SPD, FBA, have been proposed to improve the TCP performance over ATM. In this paper, to improve the TCP fairness of end to end, we propose a packet dropping scheme algorithm using two fixed threshold. Under similar condition, we compared our proposed scheme with other dropping strategies. Although the number of VC is increased, simulation results showed that the proposed scheme can allocate more fairly each VC than other schemes.

In this paper, we proposed a high performance lookup controller for IP packet forwarding engine of ATM based label edge routers. The lookup controller is designed to provide services such as MPLS, VPN, ELL, and RT services as well as the best effort. For high speed searching for IP addresses, we employed a TCAM based hardware search device not using traditional algorithmic approaches. We also implement lookup control functions into FPGA for fast processing of packet header and lookup control. The proposed lookup controller is designed to support differenciated services for users and to process in pipelined mechanism for performance improvement. A two-step search scheme is also applied to perform lookup for the key combined with multi-field of packet header. We found that the proposed lookup controller provides the performance of about 16M packets per second through simulations.

In order to accommodate current accelerated growth in customers and traffic. Internet has faced the demand to scale its network dimension both in size and bandwidth, and new service provisioning. One way to solve this problem is to forward If packets based on ATM switching technology. This paper briefly explained technical tasks to apply this If switching technique in ATM networks for building Internet backbone, and presented the directions to approach these tasks. Those tasks are scalability, ATM VC setup and mapping between VC and IP packet flow, traffic management and traffic engineering, multicast, and finally ATM switch architecture to provide multiservice.

In this paper, a contention-based reservation access control algorithm and a slot allocation algorithm are proposed for non-real-time bursty traffic services in the wireless ATM networks. In order to reduce the collisions of the reservation request packets, the base station scheduler calculates the transmission probability using the number of RAS minislots and the estimated load of the reservation request packets. And it broadcasts the calculated transmission probability over the downlink control channel. Mobile terminals, which have traffic burst, select randomly a RAS minislot and transmit the reservation request packet by the received transmission probability. The reservation request packet contains the number of packets in the buffer. The slot allocation is based on the buffer status of the received reservation request packets. The base station scheduler allocates slots in proportion to the total number of slots that are requested by each terminal.

AAL2 has been adopted for bandwidth-efficient trans-mission of low bit tate traffic over ATM networks in ITUT and ATM Forum. Since ATM/AAL2 is expected to be used as a switching technology in third-generation mobile access networks and mobile data traffic is expected to increase rapidly in near future, there must be a need for efficient scheduling scheme satisfying the QoS requirement of ow bit rate voice as well as the one of high bit rate data. In this paper, we propose a new class-scheduling scheme to improve data packet loss probability, while Qos of voice traffic is guaranteed, when data traffic is multiplexed together with mobile voice traffic into a single ATM VCC. The proposed scheme can efficiently support data traffic by assigning a time threshold value to voice traffic. Through simulation study, we show that the proposed scheme does not only achieve better efficiency for providing both mobile voice and data services than HOL class-scheduling scheme and normal FIFO scheme, but also guarantees mean voice packet delay under a certain criteria.

Usage of ATM AAL2 packets becomes dominant to increase transmission efficiency of voice traffic in the backbone network. In case of voice service that uses AAL2 mechanism, if resources of network are enough, connection of new call is accepted. However, due to packets generated by the new call, transmission delay of packets from old calls can increase sharply. To control this behavior, in this paper we present an AAL2 buffer management scheme that allocates a virtual buffer to each call and after calculating its propagation delay variation(PDV), decides to drop packets coming from each call according to the PDV value. We show that this packet dropping algorithm can effectively prevent abrupt QoS degradation of old calls. To do this, we analyze AAL2 packet composition process to find a critical factor in the process that influences the end-to-end delay behavior and model the process by K-policy M/D/1 queueing system and MIN(K, Tc)-policy M/D/1 queueing system. From the mathematical model, we derive the probability generating function of AAL2 packets in the buffer and mean waiting time of packets in the AAL2 buffer. Analytical results show that the AAL2 packet dropping algorithm can provide stable AAL2 packetization delay and ATM cell generation time even if the number of voice sources increases dramatically. Finally we compare the analytical result to simulation data obtained by using the COMNET Ⅲ package.

오늘날의 통신서비스들은 음성이나 데이터 서비스와 같은 전통적인 서비스 뿐만 아니라 비디오 서비스와 같은 대량의 데이터를 전송해야만 하는 멀티미디어 서비스를 포함한다. 이러한 요구를 수용하기 위해서 BISDN(Broadband Integated Digital Network)이 개발되었고 이의 기반 기술로 ATM이 채택되었다. 다양한 멀티미디어 응용들 중에서 VOD(Video On Demand), 화상회의 등은 데이터를 동시에 여러 목적지로 보내는 멀티캐스트 특성이 있다. 그러므로 멀티캐스트 능력은 멀티미디어 통신에서 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 링망을 이용한 병렬 멀티캐스트 패킷스위치(Parallel Multicast Packet Switch with Ring Network: PMRN)에서의 분리된 HOL을 이용한 멀티캐스트 셀 스케줄링 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 입력버퍼의 앞단에 멀티캐스트 셀과 유니캐스트 셀을 위한 분리된 HOL을 두고 non-FIFO방식을 사용함으로서 입력버퍼 내에서 전송 가능한 멀티캐스트 셀과 유니캐스트 셀을 동시에 스케쥴링할 수 있도록 하여 입력버퍼 내에서의 지연을 감소시키고 링망과 일대일 연결 네트워크의 이용율을 높이며 스위치의 처리율을 높일 수 있다.

We propose a fuzzy logic-based buffer management algorithm to improve internet traffic over ATM-GFR service. The proposed algorithm employs the strategies of early congestion detection and selective packet discard to achieve its design goals. A key feature of proposed algorithm is its ability to accept or drop a new incoming packet dynamically based on buffer condition and load rate of VCs. This is achieved by using fuzzy logic controller for the production of a drop factor. Simulation results show that proposed scheme significantly has improved fairness and TCP throughput compared with previous schemes.

In this paper. the architecture of a high-speed ATM router using ATM switch is studied and the performance of the high-speed ATM router is analyzed through simulation. The high-speed ATM router using ATM switch is able to reduce the load of router and the processing time of a packet in the router. The size of router buffers has been studied through simulation processes for the analysis of performance capacity in due course of making changes in routing time(RT), which is the performance capacity parameters of high-speed ATM routers, flow table size(FS), flow live time(FT) and input circuit efficiencies. The result of this study can be used as the source material for analyzing the suitability of equipment in upgrading networks and applying high-speed ATM routers by using ATM switches.

There are limitations to process high bandwidth traffic in B-ISDN with mesh- topology single bus architecture of current mobile communication system. And, it is impossible to import ATM switch using fixed length packet rather than variable length packet. Some implementations are able to process variable length packet, but there are some problems such as pre-processing for synchronization and bit delay. In this paper, we design a concentrator that can manipulate variable length packet without additional pre-process. There is on bit delay for packet starting signal in input interface, So it is more efficient to process packets, such that the concentrator can reduce he processing time as $\ulcornerlog2N\lrcorne＋1$ bit-time rather than N bit-time delay in ordinary concentrator. It is expected that the mobile communication system with partial mesh topology bus adopting the knockout switch architecture can process high bandwidth traffic in B-ISDN.
