Abstract

One of the imperatives for improving the quality-of-service (QoS) of high-speed networks of next generation is to reduce congestion. Congestion occurs when the resource demand exceeds the capacity of the network. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the performance of Robust Adaptive Congestion Control algorithm for available bit rate traffic in asynchronous transfer mode networks and suggest improvements of the algorithm for better performance and fairness. The results of simulation presented here corroborates the fact that the improved algorithm reduces settling time and cell loss ratio and thus maximizes utilization of the network.
