Command filtered backstepping control of multiple transmission control protocol/active queue management networks with user datagram protocol flows

In this study, the congestion control problem for multiple transmission control protocol/active queue management (TCP/AQM) networks with user datagram protocol (UDP) flows is investigated. Taking the UDP stream as the unknown interference and the maximum interference is obtained by the minimax theorem. A novel control algorithm is designed for multi‐TCP/AQM networks through backstepping control and command filtered technology. Simulation studies are carried out to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
