Abstract :
The performance of a fiber distributed data interface (FDDI) network with video and data traffic is analyzed. A finite buffer is assumed at each station. In the analysis, video traffic is modeled as an aggregation of on-off sources, and data traffic is modeled as a Poisson process. Through the approximate analysis, the average queue length, the average waiting time, and the packet loss probability are derived. Simulation results are also shown to examine the accuracy of the approximation. Effects of TTRT (target token rotation time) on the queue length, the waiting time, and the packet loss of video and data traffic are investigated
