Queue Delay Estimation and Its Application to TCP Vegas
Overview This paper proposes a modified Vegas algorithm, which can be adjusted to take a fair share of the bandwidth compared to other TCP's. In order to do this, the paper investigates the maximum round-trip time achievable in steady state flows fully utilizing available link capacities without marking packets. With this, the marking queue delay is defined. It also proposes an estimation algorithm for the marking queue delay in TCP data traffic by using the Kalman filter. The modified Vegas algorithm supplements the shortcomings of Vegas such as unfairness due to over-or under-estimations of the round-trip propagation delay.
