Abstract :
This letter proposes a novel measurement-based equivalent bandwidth technique that computes the bandwidth to be allocated to a buffer which conveys heterogeneous traffic (both concerning traffic sources and QoS requirements), without using any closed-form expression. The effectiveness of the algorithm is checked through simulation analysis.
