The Influence of the Buffer Size in Packet Loss for Competing Multimedia and Bursty Traffic

This work presents an analysis of the effect of the access router buffer size on packet loss rate and how it can affect the QoS of multimedia services when bursty traffic is present. VoIP traffic, real traces of viedoconferencing and videosurvellance are used in two different scenarios with medium link utilization. The study shows that the bursty nature of some applications may impair the MOS of voice calls especially when a certain number of bursts overlap. When link utilization is above 70% good values of VoIP QoS cannot be obtained.

Influencia del Buffer del Router en la Distribucíon de Video P2P-TV

This work presents a study of the behaviour of the router buffer when managing the traffic of P2P-TV applications, where a number of peers exchange video content. First, a summary of the characteristics of SOPCast is presented. Then, the results obtained in simulation tests using different buffer policies are presented. Real traces of the application, obtained from a research project, have been used for the tests, sharing the Internet access with different amounts of background traffic. The results show that a similar buffer behaviour for all the access technologies. In addition, the big amount of small packets generated may impair the video traffic, thus avoiding the retransmission of the contents by the application.
