Abstract :
The MPEG coding scheme is expected to be the compression algorithm for the first ATM video applications. On account of its wide variability and the type of coding used, usage parameter control (UPC) of MPEG video traffic is critical. As the widespread leaky bucket policing algorithm has proved to be unable to control the MPEG traffic, we investigate the performance of a new mechanism based on fuzzy logic as a policer for MPEG video transmission. The simulation results given demonstrate that the fuzzy policer performs very well in reducing both cell losses due to UPC and their effects
