Passive estimation of TCP round-trip times.

Passive estimation of TCP round-trip times.

We propose and evaluate a passive measurement methodology that estimates the distribution of Round-Trip Times (RTTs) for the TCP connections that flow through a network link. Such an RTT distribution is important in buffer provisioning, configuration of active queue management, and detection of cong...
