An Exponential Active Queue Management Method Based on Random Early Detection by Hussein Abdel-Jaber

“…The reported results showed that E_RED offered a marginally higher satisfactory performance with reference to mql and D than that found in common AQM methods in cases of heavy congestion. Moreover, RED_E compares well with the considered AQM methods with reference to the above evaluation performance measures using minimum threshold position (min threshold) at a router buffer.…”
