Abstract
An advance is made over the prior art in accordance with the principles of the present invention that is directed to a new approach for a system and method for a buffer management scheme. Certain embodiments of the invention improve the response of AQM schemes with controllable parameters to variations of the output rate of the bottleneck buffer. The impact on TCP performance can be substantial in most cases where the bottleneck rate is not guaranteed to be fixed. The new solution allows AQM schemes to achieve queue stability despite continuous variations of the bottleneck rate.
