The model TCP/AQM is described by a second-order system with time delay. First, the analytical approach, based on the D-decomposition method and Lemma of Kharitonov, is used to determine the stabilizing regions of a firstorder controller. Second, the optimal parameters of the controller are obtained by the PSO algorithm. Finally, the proposed method is implemented in the Network Simulator NS-2 and compared with the PI controller.}, journal = {International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering}, volume = {7}, number = {4}, year = {2013}, pages = {504 - 511}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/3122}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/76}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 76, 2013}, }
