QoS Implementation with Triple-Metric-Based Active Queue Management for Military Networks

For supporting Quality of Service (QoS) in a military network, applications of the triple-metric priority of performance, importance, and urgency as well as autonomous and lightweight implementation are required. In a previous study, we analyzed a Korean military network’s QoS implementation in the perspective of the triple-metric and presented some improvements in the simplification of the service classes of Differentiated Services (DiffServ). To extend the simplified DiffServ from the previous research, this paper proposes Active Queue Management (AQM) algorithms to process the traffic of each service class differently based on importance and urgency and shows the feasibility through some experiments.
