Abstract
A reliable system and method is provided for approximating a required network capacity for inhomogeneous self-similar traffic sources in a multimedia packet network. A diffusion model is first constructed for the multimedia packet network, the diffusion model assuming an input process representing the traffic sources is a sum of a plurality of independent fractional Gaussian noise processes with a plurality of corresponding Hurst parameters. A predetermined Weibull function contained in the diffusion model is then approximated, and the acceptance of a new traffic source is determined based on a predetermined packet loss probability parameter contained in the diffusion model.
