Abstract

This work extends the notion of the widely mentioned and used fractional Brownian traffic model in the literature. Extensive experimental investigations indicate that the proposed traffic model, named extended fractional Brownian traffic, can capture not only the self-similar properties, but also the inherent multifractal characteristics of those traffic flows found in modern communication networks. Additionally, the structure of this traffic model is taken into account in a traffic prediction algorithm that benefits from the more accurate traffic modeling. The experimental results clearly point out the advantages of using the proposed model in traffic modeling as well as in traffic prediction.
