Abstract

According to some discoveries and analysis results of network measurement in modern communication networks in recent years, much literature has proven that traffic present the nonstationary Poisson characteristic at sub-second time scales in IP backbone, which not accord with self-similarity characteristic for last decade. This paper presents the binomial measure method for traffic characteristic analysis. Some novel properties about the method are also discussed. The method can produces a time series with self-similarity characteristic, and more, realizes the transition from self-similarity distribution to Poisson one. The validity of the method is verified by simulation experiments on NS2. The purpose of the paper is to provide a comprehensive presentation of the binomial measure method base multifractal theory in traffic engineering field.
