Abstract

A key component of an efficient multipath routing is the optimal resource allocation strategy that deals with how the traffic should be distributed amongst the multiple paths. In this paper, intelligent traffic distribution policies that minimise the experienced delay by the user are proposed. For such delay minimisation, we investigate and evaluate traffic distribution policies in a multipath environment that minimize the average delay and the bottleneck path delay over all the paths.
