Abstract

Existing bandwidth estimation tools fail to perform well at gigabit and higher network speeds. In this paper we study several sources of noise that must be overcome by these tools in high-speed envrionments and propose strategies for addressing them. We evaluate our Linux implementation on 1 and 10Gbps testbed networks, showing that our strategies help significantly in scaling bandwidth estimation to high-speed networks.
