Robust adaptive flow control in high speed telecommunication networks

We consider a single controlled traffic source, sharing a bottleneck node with other (higher priority) sources, whose traffic is modeled by an ARMA process. The controlled source adapts dynamically its transmission rate to the remaining available bandwidth. We focus in this paper on the case when the ARMA parameters are unknown. We use an H/sup /spl infin// approach, and design a controller which combines identification (of the ARMA parameters) with the control in a novel way.
