Abstract

The congestion control algorithm, which has dynamic adaptations at both user ends and link ends, with heterogeneous delays is considered and analyzed. Some general stability criteria involving the delays and the system parameters are derived by generalized Nyquist criteria. Furthermore, by choosing one of the delays as the bifurcation parameter, and when the delay exceeds a critical value, a limit cycle emerges via a Hopf bifurcation. Resonant double Hopf bifurcation is also found to occur in this model. An efficient perturbation-incremental method is presented to study the delay-induced resonant double Hopf bifurcation. For the bifurcation parameter close to a double Hopf point, the approximate expressions of the periodic solutions are updated iteratively by use of the perturbation-incremental method. Simulation results have verified and demonstrated the correctness of the theoretical results.
