Performance study of large block forward error correction with random early detection queue policy

In this paper, we report an investigation on performance of the forward error correction (FEC) with random early detection (RED) queuing policy. FEC is a technique that uses redundant packet to reconstruct the dropped packet, while RED is an active queue management algorithm. It monitors the average...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we report an investigation on performance of the forward error correction (FEC) with random early detection (RED) queuing policy. FEC is a technique that uses redundant packet to reconstruct the dropped packet, while RED is an active queue management algorithm. It monitors the average queue size and drops arriving packets probabilistically, the probability of drop increases as the estimated average queue size grows. In the investigation we consider simulation settings with varies size of the queue buffer.Results obtained from the simulation experiments show that FEC and queue size affect the performance the network. Consequently, the qualities of multimedia applications are also affected.
