Abstract
Congestion control in the Available Bit Rate (ABR) class of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
networks poses interesting challenges due to the presence of multiple-delays, magnitude and rate
constraints on the inputs, amplitude limitation on the state, and additive disturbances. In this paper,
we consider a fixed-structure controller for an ATM/ABR network, and solve a robust tracking control
problem in which the target is a threshold on the queue level.
