SIMULATION OF SELF-SIMILAR TRAFFIC AND A TCP TRAFFIC SIMULATOR

This paper presents a simulation method of self-similar traffic and a type of TCP traffic simulators based on autocorrelation sequences. The impulse function of a simulator is carried out. The parameter estimations for modeling the impulse function of the simulator are determined by multidimensio nal nonlinear least squares fitting. The existence and the uniqueness of solutions for the multidimensional nonlinear least squares are proved based on convex analysis.
