Abstract :
An analytical study of Fast Reservation Protocol is presented as a way to compare FRP performance against simple statistical multiplexing. The comparison is done on the basis of the multiplexing capability of each scheme. Queuing models for both schemes are developed and based on these models the maximum numbers of sources that can be multiplexed by each scheme is then computed. The results quantitatively confirm the previously accepted characteristics of FRP, i.e. that it is good for long burst and short round trip delay
