Study on AQM Based Buffer Management in LTE Network

Abstract

This study is emerged on AQM based buffer management of LTE system where we have observed the performance of multiple Medium Access Control (MAC) schedulers with TCP traffic with the help of ns3 simulation. We tried to carry out the knowledge of the effect of Active Queue Management (AQM) based congestion control and intra LTE handover. The extended idea of Smart RED (SmRED) to SmRED-i, where packet dropping probability function is different in accordance with the value of i = 2, 3, 4 . . .which is proposed by Effect of AQM-Based RLC Buffer Management on the eNB Scheduling Algorithm in LTE Network has been discussed on this paper. The influence of this method has been studied previously. Herein, a more efficient manner to manage interference has been represented. Based on the results obtained in this report through different ns3 simulations, the options presented in this performance of different schedulers can be enhanced via proper dropping function which can be seen as positive solutions.
