Background Traffic Simulation and its Application in Satellite Network Performance Analysis
背景流量仿真及其在卫星网络性能分析中的应用

It is generally accepted that network traffic could be characterized by self-similarity. It is important to generate network traffic according to this principle for network performance analysis. A scheme for network background traffic generation was given, and it was validated by a program implemented in VC++. Furthermore, this procedure was used to simulate satellite network and help to analyze end to end delay. It suggests that bursty traffic has influence on satellite network performance.This factor should be carried to satellite network routing optimization and traffic allocation.
