Title:
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ESTIMATING NETWORK PERFORMANCE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/056051
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method carried out by a first node for estimating network performance by selecting at least one network interface of the first node and at least one network interface of a second node and then transmitting reference packets to the second node. The reference packets are transmitted through the selected network interfaces of the first node to the selected network interfaces of the second node. After receiving the reference packets, the second node generates arrival information and sends the arrival information to the first node. The first utilizes the arrival information for estimating the network performance. The network interfaces are selected according to a policy and end-to-end connection(s) may be established between selected network interfaces of the first node and selected network interfaces of the second node. The end-to-end connection(s) may be aggregated to form an aggregated end-to-end connection. Alternatively, the network interfaces are selected according to an end-to-end connection profile or an aggregated end-to-end connection profile.
