Abstract

End-to-end available bandwidth is very meaningful for network applications that require quality-of-service, network management tools, and network security like DOS detection. In the last decade, although many techniques and tools have been developed, the accuracy of these tools still remains challenging [25]. Many researchers are trying to improve the results by handling noise. This paper creates a taxonomy of applying filter techniques to the available bandwidth estimation tools. We independently experimented to compare these filter techniques. Our results again show that filter techniques can improve the accuracy of estimation tools, in general. However, some filters are better than others', according to the particular network scenarios. This paper also gives a guideline on how to use the filters effectively.
