Abstract
In this letter, we propose an extension of the conventional leaky bucket (LB) algorithm which we call recurrent leaky bucket (RLB). It is suited for traffic characterized by a recurring cycle, such as variable bit-rate video. RLB extends LB by including a new parameter to describe the recurring cycle: the recurring interval. We show the correctness of our design where we illustrate its impulse response and traffic envelope. The improved efficiency of RLB is also numerically demonstrated. © 1994-2012 IEEE.
