Abstract
Available bandwidth estimation is very important for network operators, users, and bandwidth-sensitive applications. In the last 20 years, various techniques and systems have been proposed to estimate end-to-end available bandwidth. They were mostly tested in simulation or inside small-scale networks, but they can’t consistently offer satisfying accuracy over the Internet. An active probing method SOProbe is proposed, and it measures end-to-end available bandwidth from only the installed host. The key idea of SOProbe is to identify the rate range where the available bandwidth resides. To archives this, SOProbe sends probe packets at selected transmission rates, and tries to catch the relationship between probe packets and available bandwidth.
