Abstract

Active Queue Management (AQM) algorithm is important to manage buffers and transfer packets for wired/wireless networks. However, the unresponsive flows to the network congestion control is dangerous to the network equilibrium and Quality of Service (QoS), especially from the point of network resource allocation. In some certain scenarios, the limited network resource (buffers) can be occupied by the unresponsive flows easily, which results in Reduction of Quality (RoQ). In this paper, a new AQM algorithm is proposed in order to strengthen the robustness of Internet against unresponsive flows.
