Abstract :
Formulae are developed that act as design rules when buffering an ON-OFF source with long range dependent (LRD) characteristics. These can be used to predict the buffer overflow probability, or the equivalent capacity required to ensure a specified buffer overflow probability. The traffic source has Pareto distributed ON and OFF periods, and therefore this analysis can be seen as an extension of earlier results for exponential ON and OFF periods
