  • Abstract
    A novel implementation of a tag sorting circuit for a weighted fair queuing (WFQ) enabled IP packet scheduler is presented. The design consists of a search tree, matching circuitry and a custom memory layout. The implementation uses 130 nm silicon technology and supports quality of service on networks at line speeds of 40 Gbps.
