Robust stability analysis of Smith predictor-based congestion control algorithms for computer networks

L De Cicco, S Mascolo, SI Niculescu - Automatica, 2011 - Elsevier
Congestion control is a fundamental building block in packet switching networks such as the
Internet due to the fact that communication resources are shared. It has been shown that the …

Congestion control in high-speed communication networks using the Smith principle

S Mascolo - Automatica, 1999 - Elsevier
High-speed communication networks are characterized by large bandwidth-delay products.
This may have an adverse impact on the stability of closed-loop congestion control …

Design of robust H∞ controllers for congestion control in data networks

N El Fezazi, F El Haoussi, EH Tissir… - Journal of the Franklin …, 2017 - Elsevier
A novel approach for internet congestion control is presented here, using a static feedback
law. A congestion controller for Network TCP/IP Routers is derived, to ensure stability for a …

Modeling the Internet congestion control using a Smith controller with input shaping

S Mascolo - Control engineering practice, 2006 - Elsevier
The Internet has shown a great capability of endless growing without incurring congestion
collapse. The key of this success lies in its TCP/IP congestion control algorithm. In this …

A control theoretical approach to congestion control in packet networks

D Cavendish, M Gerla… - IEEE/ACM Transactions on …, 2004 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we introduce a control theoretical analysis of the closed-loop congestion

Design of a robust digital controller for congestion control in Internet

C Sall, S Doubabi - Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory, 2011 - Elsevier
This paper is concerned with the design of a robust AQM control scheme for congestion
control in Internet. The design of efficient control schemes is challenging since the TCP …

On the H/sup/spl infin//controller design for congestion control in communication networks with a capacity predictor

PF Quet, S Ramakrishnan… - Proceedings of the 40th …, 2001 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper we investigate the use of the outgoing link capacity information in the H/sup/spl
infin//controller design for rate based flow control in a communication network for the case of …

Dynamic modeling of Internet congestion control

K Jacobsson - 2008 - diva-portal.org
Abstract The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) has successfully governed the Internet
congestion control for two decades. It is by now, however, widely recognized that TCP has …
