Abstract
This paper reports a study of random deflection routing protocol and its impact on delay-jitter over packet networks. In case of congestion, routers with a random deflection routing protocol can forward incoming packets to links laying off shortest paths; namely, packets can be "deflected" away from their original paths. However, random deflection routing may send packets to several different paths, thereby introducing packet re-ordering. This could affect the quality of receptions, it could also impair the overall performance in transporting data traffic. Nevertheless, the present study reveals that deflection routing could actually reduce delay-jitter when the traffic loading on the network is not heavy. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
