The cell delay variation introduced from an ATM access multiplexer

This paper develops an analytical model of the multiplexer based on the work of Roberts and Virtamo (IEEE Trans. vol.COM-39, no.2, p. Feb.1991) and Skliros (1993 Symposium). The M+D/D/1 queue is used to model the CDV introduced into a Constant Bit Rate traffic stream when multiplexed with Poisson background traffic. The results from simulation and analytical models are compared, and conclusions drawn as to the validity of this performance modelling strategy.<
