Abstract:

Considering the instability of data transferred existing in high speed network, a new method is proposed for improving the stability using control theory. Under this method, the mathematical model of such a network is established. Stability condition is derived from the mathematical model. Several simulation experiments are performed. The results show that the method can increase the stability of data transferred in terms of the congestion window, queue size, and sending rate of the source.
