The simulation and analysis of a simple model of an ATM multiplexer in which policed sources feed a deterministically served buffer is described. The results show that the leaky bucket mechanism introduces correlations into the policed streams which allow bounds to be placed on cell loss caused by buffer overflow.

Inspec keywords: multiplexing; broadband networks; queueing theory

Other keywords: policed streams; policed sources; bounds; analysis; asynchronous transfer mode; deterministically served buffer; ATM multiplexer; cell loss caused by buffer overflow; simulation; small bucket depths; leaky bucket policing mechanism
