一种基于分段测量的Internet端到端性能参数估计方法

传统的基于测量的Internet性能参数估计要求测量点是端到端路径的起点和终点,这一方面使得测量和估计带有很大盲目性,增加了网络流量;另一方面会导致测量方法难于实施,估计结果不准确。提出了基于分段测量的思想,对ITU-T定义的延迟、延迟变化、丢包率和错误率4个参数进行测量和估计。由于测量是分段进行的,每次测量值都可应用于多条端到端路径的性能参数估计,因此降低了盲目性并大大减少了网络流量。为验证本方法的性能,基于PlanetLab平台设计和实现了生成器、性能参数测量机和结果收集器。通过在全球的100多个节点上的部署和为期一个月的运行证明了该方法便于实施,并且具有较高的准确性。

Segmental Measurement Based Approach to Estimate Internet End-to-end Performance Parameter

The traditional measurement based method for estimating Internet performance parameters requires measurement points to be the start and the end of an end-to-end path.Such condition can make measurement aimless and increase network traffic.Meanwhile the estimation may be hard to implement,and the results may also be less accurate.This paper proposed a novel approach based on segmental measurement to estimate delay,delay variation,loss rate and error rate,which were defined by ITU-T.As each measurement can be...
