A Packetized Round Robin Service Discipline for IP Audio Streams in MPLS DiffServ Networks
Overview Real-time voice applications generate network traffic streams that require stringent per-connection performance guarantees in terms of throughput, delay, delay-jitter, and packet loss-rate. To guarantee such performance requirements two levels of control are needed: Connection Admission Control (CAC) at the connection level and service discipline at the packet level. These two levels of control can now be achieved using Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) in conjunction with Differentiated Services (DiffServ) architecture. As more and more real time voice applications are made available in the Internet, the problem of providing QoS guarantees to such applications becomes more relevant. One difficulty with the Internet is the variable packet sizes allowed, making it harder to calculate delay bounds on various traffic flows.
