Abstract :
A traffic throttle can be modelled as a gate with one input and two outputs: pass for accepted calls, and gap for rejected calls. The gate decides whether to pass or to gap an incoming call according to its policing mechanism. The authors show that a small modification to a leaky bucket policing mechanism yields a lowpass filter. The proposed mechanism is a new type of a nonlinear filter
