Detailed Description

The "Mean--Deviation" RTT estimator, as discussed by Van Jacobson.

This class implements the "Mean--Deviation" RTT estimator, as discussed by Van Jacobson and Michael J. Karels, in "Congestion Avoidance and Control", SIGCOMM 88, Appendix A

The default values for the gain (alpha and beta) are set as documented in RFC 6298.

◆ CheckForReciprocalPowerOfTwo()

uint32_t ns3::RttMeanDeviation::CheckForReciprocalPowerOfTwo ( double val ) const

private

Utility function to check for possible conversion of a double value (0 < value < 1) to a reciprocal power of two.

Parameters

val	value to check

Returns: log base 2 (1/val) if reciprocal power of 2, or zero if not

◆ GetInstanceTypeId()

TypeId ns3::RttMeanDeviation::GetInstanceTypeId ( ) const

overridevirtual

Get the most derived TypeId for this Object.

This method is typically implemented by ns3::Object::GetInstanceTypeId but some classes which derive from ns3::ObjectBase directly have to implement it themselves.
