Abstract

We present a recursive formula for estimating the packet loss rate in IP networks. Specifically, we consider a single link whose capacity is shared dynamically by elastic data flows, each characterized by some peak rate, and derive the for- mula from the steady-state distribution of the number and peak rates of ongoing flows. The result is particularly useful for dimensioning ISP backhaul networks that aggregate the traffic of various types of users.

Keywords
