Abstract :
In this paper, we describe and evaluate a novel active queue management scheme that has been designed to optimize the transport of TCP-based traffic over GERAN 3rd generation wireless links. By means of simulations, we found that this scheme outperforms traditional passive and popular RED queuing schemes both in terms of link utilization and in terms of the amount of queuing delay introduced.
