Summary:
This thesis addresses a method to deduce the statistical bounds associated with the cell-transfer delay variations (CDVs) encountered by the cells of MPEG traffic, transmitted in the Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks. This study focuses on: (1) Estimating CDV arising from multiplexing/switching for both constant bit rate (CBR) and variable bit rate (VBR) traffics via priority allocation based simulations. (2) Developing an information-theoretics based technique to get an insight of the combined BER-induced and multiplexing/switching-induced CDVs in ATM networks. Algorithms pertinent to CDV statistics are derived and the lower and upper bounds of the statistics are obtained via simulations in respect of CBR and VBR traffics. Ascertaining these bounds is useful in the cell admission control (CAC) strategies adopted in ATM transmissions. Inferential remarks indicating the effects of traffic parameters (such as bandwidth, burstiness etc.) on the values of the statistical bounds are presented, and scope for further work are presented.
