The Impact of Header Compression and Rate Control on Typical TCP / IP traffic over ATM connections

| Abstract | This paper looks at the variation of cell use efficiency with IP packet size, and argues that it is a misleading measure of ATM's usefulness. We focus on the number of cells needed to carry 'typical' IP traffic, and show that the existence of large IP packets renders the inefficient cell use of small IP packets less important. We also show that the effect of cell rate control on IP packet rates will not disrupt applications generating 'typical' IP traffic. Simple plots of IP bit rate versus packet size on a rate limited connection are shown to be misleading. |
