FLACC: Fuzzy Logic Approach for Congestion Control

Abstract

The popularity of network applications has increased the number of packets travelling within the routers in networks. The movement expends most resources in such networks and consequently leads to congestion, which worsens the performance measures of networks, such as delay, packet loss and bandwidth. This study proposes a new method called Fuzzy Logic Approach for Congestion Control (FLACC), which uses fuzzy logic to decrease delay and packet loss. This method also improves network performance. In addition, FLACC employs average queue length (aql) and packet loss (PL) as input linguistic variables to control the congestion at early stages. In this study, the proposed and compared methods were simulated and evaluated. Results reveal that fuzzy logic Gentle Random Early Detection (FLGRED) showed better performance results than Gentle Random Early Detection (GRED) and GRED Fuzzy Logic in delay and packet loss and when the router buffer was in heavy congestion.
